Hitch hikers guide to the galaxy. All five in the trilogy. (No, i am not stupid, it says a trilogy in five parts). Funny sci-fi stuff. But very funny.

Atlas Shrugged,  a 1000+ page novel by Ayn Rand. It's one of the most loved, and hated, books produced during the 20th century. 

Or maybe you should just wait for the movie, or tv mini-series to come out.  Although I'm not sure how much waiting will be required.  According to the Wikipedia article, the movie effort has been in development-hell for the last 35 years!

The Lord of the Rings books, - J.R. Tolkien.

An amazing read, beats the movies (the movies were awesome as well) and it will take at least a month to read, and you'll never want to put it down.

I just bought the audiobook version of the Mars series by Kim Stanley Robinson a few days ago. Haven't started it yet, but I hear it is outstanding.

Try David Guterson's, "Snow Falling on Cedars". Literally, one of the five best books of the last 25 years.
Follow that up. with Cormac McCarthy's, "Blood Meridian". Another of the five best books of the last quarter century..

Try Terry Pratchett. Perhaps try Equal Rites to start with, he's written so many books, its hard to suggest where to start. Also try "Guards, Guards"
