If you like the Rama series, I suggest the Ringworld series by Niven.

It has that same "eh-ness" for character development and plot but the idea of a giant Ring around a star never leaves your mind--much like the giant black cylinder hurling somewhere out of the system at god knows how fast.

Also I finished, Grapes of Wrath and was that ever a bizarre novel. The ending wouldn't let me think clearly for a couple of days. I did though love the ideas of Jim Casy, they're alot like that of Thoreau's.
