The Man Who Was Thursday and pic related
If you liked those, just pick whatever else you want to read by him, I've yet to be disappointed. I'm reading The Everlasting Man right now actually.

I think the best places to start are Manalive and The Man Who Was Thursday, but he's a very accessible author so read whatever catches your eye.

Start with best work is a drive-by read

Starting chronologically or minor to major works is how those real patricians you guys heard about do it
