If you are looking just for good books, then read, in order, The Brothers' War, The Gathering Dark, The Eternal Ice, The Shattered Alliances and The Thran.
Magic books are a mixed bag, with some really great stories and some really garbage stories. I've read snippets of Kamigawa books, the Ice age books, Weatherlight Saga, Mercadian Masques, and Shadowmoor, but I dont think I read or remember enough of them to give my opinion.

Comprised of five books – The Brothers’ War, Planeswalker, Time Streams, Bloodlines, and The Thran – the Artifacts cycle is arguably the most popular series of MTG books ever published. Focused on the plane of Dominaria, Artifacts brilliantly captures the vastness of Magic: The Gathering – its long histories, its interwoven worlds, and the conseque...
