I like some of his short stories, but I haven't read much of his stuff

Well, this book is kinda cheating in a list like this, because it's actually
a collection of short stories. For novels, I'd hafta go with Fahrenheit 451.

Neuromancer, probably.
I haven't read it all the way through, but I understand Mona Lisa Overdrive
is quite good.  Sadly, his latest work seems to be a mishmash of all the
Cyberpunk cliches he helped create in the first place!

Agreed. Which is why I chose the first one. :)
