The problem with a John Brunner book list is that he suffers from the
"across-the-pond" syndrome.  With moderately popular British author, you
get British only editions, American editions titled the same as British
editions with different contents, and American editions identical to
British editions but with a different title.  John Brunner had several of
his novels abridged when published in the US in the early 60's (typically
as 1/2 of an Ace Double).  The complete text (with revisions) was generally
published in the late-60's.

John Brunner tends to write two kinds of novels:  a standard SF novel of
above average quality, and impressive mega-novels.  Mega-novels include:
Stand on Zanzibar, The Shockwave Rider, The Sheep Look Up & The Jagged
Orbit.  I also recommend The Traveller in Black.
