Watership Down.

Also some Philip K. Dick books, like A Scanner Darkly and Eye in the Sky.

But I also enjoyed the Bartimaues trilogy so much when I was somewhat younger.

Went into comment section to suggest Watership Down. It’s a children’s book which reads like an adult treaties on free will, totalitarianism, good vs evil, leadership … and, oh yeah, the value of overwhelming seagull power.
