One of the Scarred Lands books or Midnight.  Heroic action? Eberron might be more your speed.And if you want to do something other than fantasy, get Mutants and Masterminds, which is probably the best superhero system on the market.But really, it boils down to individual preference.  You don't need anything beyond the SRD, assuming you're willing to wing it on character creation and XP awards.  In fact, if you're operating off of the SRD, you might find it most useful to buy the PHB and MM to have hardcopy - I know I prefer that to reading the stuff online, and it makes using the stuff during the game a lot easier.  Oh, wait - I see you have the corebooks, so you can ignore that.Anyway, the best (?) thing that you can ask for in a book is that it makes you want to alter your campaign so you can use it - but the books that do that are going to be different for every person.  Your best bet is to look through lots of books and see which ones inspire you.
