Of those, I would recommend the Clarke/Baxter collaborations. The Light of Other Days is a terrific book. Though to be fair I am a fan of both Clarke and Baxter.

I'd also recommend the three Caliban books written by Roger McBride Allen. The books are worthy sci-fi. He manages to capture the Asimov vibe, but he is a better writer. Unfortunately not available as ebooks.
