Cryptonomicon is great but I will still always tell newcomers to start with The Baroque Cycle (if they don't mind really really long books) because these books show you both the mad magic of a storyteller who's always totally just in control *and* why the act of storytelling itself is the highest form of escapist truth-telling.
