The Moon is a Harsh Mistress, Robert A. Heinlein.

So far, this is the best 300+ page novel by Heinlein I've ever read. Political revolution on the Moon. A great narrator's voice, an exciting & epic scale to the events and violence, a well-worked out and unique social system. AIs, VRs, mass-drivers, libertarian philosophy and marriage clans - and many other gimmicks.

I'm a huge fan of The Puppet Masters but this is far more advanced.
