VURT is nice. Shut your whoremouth.

Meme Wolfe is mentioned a lot, but this is his best novel and rarely discussed.

Only Forward by Michael Marshall Smith is solid and has some interesting concepts if you can deal with a few plot holes.

The Quantum Thief series by Hannu Rajaniemi is also really good.
