Jack McDevitt.
If you're into science fiction, often with a mystery bent, I can happily say that every one of his works pleases. This is rare for an author, at least these days. My hat is off to thee, and thanks!

1. I've seen his work...
but haven't read anything by him yet. What's a good book to start with?

2. "Seeker" is especially good, although it's part of a series
it can be read as a stand-alone. If you like "Seeker", then you'll know that the rest are also fun.

3. Absolutely! He was a random airport bookstore grab (Talent for War, IIRC) that
really paid off for me...
