"The Door Into Ocean" by Joan Slonczewski
"Cat's Cradle" by Kurt Vonnegut
"Maul" by Tricia Sullivan

I loved Cat's Cradle!

Most anything by Steve Aylett. His Beerlight books are like Robert Rankin writing William Gibson in the style of Micky Spillane.

If you like Jeff Noon I'd suggest the RIM series by Alexander Besher.

Octavia E Butler writes some fun stuff: "Xenogenesis" series is probably her best, SF-wise, though I enjoyed "From Seed to Harvest" as well. :3

Anything by Sheri S. Tepper: I especially liked Singer from the Sea and the three Mavin Manyshaped novels, but Six Moon Dance and The Gate to Women's Country are also interesting.
