"Linear Algebra Done Right" is a great second book, I wouldn't use it as a first source of learning Linear Algebra.

I feel like Linear Algebra Done Right is a great book, but it is a better second book about Linear Algebra, rather than a good first book.

A Desolation Called Peace, or really that series, is one of my favorite SF reads of the last 10 years, I've recommended it often.

It's by far my favorite non-textbook math book, and I can't recommend it more highly if you're into that sort of thing.

I highly recommend his previous book, "Uncle Petros and Golbach's conjecture".
