As an avid reader of Neal Stephenson and William Gibson, I'm being recommended to try Greg Egan, but where to start on such a large body of work!? Any suggestions?

Oceanic, ISBN 978-0-575-08652-4 is where I would start. Egan is renowned more for his short stories than his novels and this collection contains 3 of his top 5, imo.

Got round to reading pretty much all the short stories in this collection now - got to say great recommendation and thoroughly enjoyed all of them. A nice balance between imaginative fiction and scientific and mathematical theories. I'm hooked in.
