Asimov's Foundation series, the first 3 books of Dune, Stephen Donaldson's Chronicles of Thomas Covenant The Unbeliever all come to mind.

Terry Pratchett's Discworld novels are well liked. The bits & pieces I've sampled are hilarious.

I can't recommend you 1984 then? Fiction, but hardly escapism.

Dune (1) and Enders Game are my favourites.
