I'm a little late here, but I'll pitch in my 2 cents anyway.
I've read all the above books, except for the last (The Moon is a Harsh Mistress), which was so dry and boring that despite being short I could never finish it. And I like a lot of Heinlein books.
Altered Carbon is the only one I unreservedly recommend. The others are all quirky in their own way, and while I enjoyed them to no end, I can see how others might or might not. To enjoy Cryptonomicon you may need to be a bit of a computer geek. Dune and Anathem are a bit philosophical. And Dream Thief is scifi from a Christian perspective. But I like them all!
Given that I like half the books on your list, maybe I should try the other half.
