@mcfate Thanks for the recommendation. Just ordered it.
For me, the best (so far) is "This is How You Lose the Time War" by Max Gladstone and Amal El-Mohtar.
Based on the description I see for "Lords of Light" I would also recommend "The Book of Strange New Things" by Michel Faber. Both of these are books that stick in the mind and provoke thought long after reading.
Read the former, it was very good, but not the latter. "Under the Skin" was great, though.

I still kind of feel that Zelazny's "Lord of Light" is close to the best science fiction novel I've ever read.
