Came here to mention Cryptonomicon, which remains my favorite book. Stevenson's prior stuff was all entertaining and intelligent but he took it to new heights in Cryptonomicon. His later books, sadly, are frankly not very accessible, for me at least. As well I understand that recently he's gone of the rails riding the feminism train or some such. Pity.

If you haven't tried Gene Wolfe you may want to give his The Book of the New Sun series a look.

I hear you about discipline. The internet is too strong of a distraction and I find I can only read books when I don't have ready access to it.
