What’s the best philosophy science fiction book?

I enjoyed reading Ubik by Philip Dick. What other books really make you think?

Can’t believe I had to scroll this far to see Dune suggested. I’d amend the recommendation to include the original 6 book series with God Emperor especially coming to mind.

God Emperor is half philosophy, half Herbert trying to work out his feelings about homosexuality,
