Skip the big tomes (Fountainhead and Atlas Shrugged). They're bloated and have absurdly long monologues. Instead go for The New Intellectual and Anthem. The New Intellectual has an introduction where she summarizes her historical and philosophical world view. Then she pulls extracts from her four main fiction works that support or illustrate her points (mainly from the aforementioned monologues).

Anthem is, as stated previously, a good read because it's actually just a good idea for a novella and makes a good individualist manifesto in its own right.
