The real cut up books are The Nova Trilogy, and (although I did read all 3 when I was younger) they are quite a trial.
I also enjoyed "Queer" and "Junkie" which are often not counted as part of his ordinary canon of work (the former was written first and published only posthumously). They're both biographical of course, and approachable. Later in life he wrote The Western Lands which is a fairly straightforward biography, and worth reading.
