Sci-Fi recommendations please

I am looking for a sci-fi book for Chrimbo for someone who has specific tastes, but as I am not a big consumer of sci-fi, I am at a bit of a loss. She loves Ian M Banks, but does not like Greg Egan. She recently enjoyed "The Windup Girl" by Paolo Bacigalupi too. Any suggestions then from avid readers of Sci-Fi? Cheers, LD

Anyone here read any Rudy Rucker?

He was recommended to me, but I'm having trouble finding him in the bookshops.

Re-reading the evolutionary void at the moment, so I must add my recommendation of Hamilton
