I have two ultimate faves:-

Accelerando (Charlie Stross) - truly epic, hard-scifi, from near to far future, truly hardcore

Diamond Age (Neal Stephenson) - awesome tale, plenty of nanotech, almost fairy-tale-esque

[Edit: formatting]

Diamond Age is one of those awesome books where what you get out of it depends on where you are in life. I read it both before children and after children. I enjoyed it both times. But it was a different experience.
