Clearly I have to be here.

As it happens, I'm a few books ahead of you in a complete re-read of Foundation; having got as far as 1/3 of the way through Foundation and Earth (I was horrified to find after I'd finished "Edge" last week that I didn't have a copy of "Earth". I lent it to someone and it never came back - so I had to buy another.

Can I add to the list

The Uplift stories of David Brin

Sundiver (1980)
Startide Rising (1983)
The Uplift War (1987)
The Uplift Storm Trilogy
Brightness Reef (1995)
Infinity's Shore (1996)
Heaven's Reach (1998)

Robert Heinlein - everything he wrote, but you must grok Stranger in a Strange Land in fullness first.

Larry Niven's Ringworld

Haldeman's Forever War

Kim Stanley Robinson's Mars Trilogy

Neil Gaiman's Neverwhere

William Gibson's Neuromancer

Jon Courtnay Grimwood's Arabesk Trilogy

Is that enough to be going on with?
