Richard Morgan. Start with "Altered Carbon". My brother felt it was a bit too violent.
James Alan Gardner. "Expendable" sets the stage, and i didn't think it was especially good, but "Vigilant" is fantastic, and if you read "Expendable", you'll probably like "Ascending".
Steven Brust has been around for a while, but he's still writing and he's still good.
Peter da Silva insists that William Gibson's "Pattern Recognition" is SF; i disagree, but it's still an excellent book.
I hope to god you've read Pratchett's "Night Watch" because that fucking book makes me cry every time i read it. "Going Postal" is also very good, with his best ending to date.
I hope i don't have to mention Neil Gaiman.
If you feel like reading a Web comic, A Miracle of Science (http://project-apollo.net/mos/) finished last year and is a fun, good read.
