There are some great novel recommendations here, but I wouldn't say that most of them are lesser-known.

What are your recommendations?

As for me, I've exclusively read well-known novels, except if you consider someone like Alfred Bester obscure, for example.

One exception: Misha Burnett's Endless Summer: Twelve Strange Tales of Mankind's Future. It's a collection of exceptionnaly well-crafted stories. It ain't a novel, though.

In Her Name series by Michael R. hicks. A series of novels about conflict between humanity and a race of far superior cat women. There's a whole lot more to it but it's a great read with an interesting story.
