Book of the New Sun, by Gene Wolfe.

Everything else I've ever tried has eventually gone down in a death spiral (I'm talking to YOU, David Brin, Isaac Asimov, Arthur C. Clarke, Frederik Pohl, Frank Herbert, Orson Scott Card, William Gibson, and especially Edgar Rice Burroughs. I'm sure I could name at least a dozen more if I had the time.)

This is one series in which the whole thing holds up and bears (almost requires) re-reading, because events in later books reveal the true meaning of seemingly-obvious events in earlier ones.
