Dan Simmons: Hyperion, Fall of Hyperion
Read them (if you haven't already) before any HBO serialization or movie can forever ruin them for you.
Peter Watts: Blindsight, Echopraxia
Strong concept and incredibly fleshed-out world building, reminds me of Lem.
Stanislav Lem: Fiasco
An inverted first-contact scenario.

Watts' Backlist is also available to read from his website, including 4 novels (his Starfish + Maelstrom + Behemoth trilogy) and Blindsight, as well as many short stories: https://rifters.com/real/shorts.htm https://rifters.com/real/shorts.htm If you read only one of Watts' books, read Blindsight.
