What esoteric sci-fi novels would you recommend? Like The Incal, Dune, The Metabarons… you know, that kind of style? (I'd prefer they weren't graphic novels tho)

What do you mean by esoteric exactly? High concept sci-fi?

I think this one made Cordwainer Smith my favorite scifi author. The rest of his Instrumentality stories are worth reading too, though I think only pic related really qualifies as "esoteric".

I wouldn't call them esoteric per se, but I highly recommend the novels of Greg Egan as science fiction stories that are about dealing with different questions of the nature of reality.
