Years of Rice and Salt was so so, IMHO - a bit gimmicky, like a spec fic version of books like London/Princes of Ireland and so on.
Definitely avoid "Three Californias" (a trilogy, with three different futures for California). I picked those up right after the Mars trilogy (which they predate), and ouch... those books were really flat and boring.

Kim Stanley Robinson's best work?

My two favourites are those two already mentioned - Red Mars and The Years of Rice and Salt.
