Any one of these books by Aristotle:
Physics
Metaphysics
Nichomachean Ethics
Politics
though I have to say, I particularly enjoyed Metaphysics and Nichomachean Ethics.
As for Plato:
The Apology
Crito
Phaedo
The Meno
Gorgias
The Sophist
The Symposium
Parmenides
Phaedrus
Protagoras
I love anything of Plato (though I have a soft spot for The Meno) so I can't narrow it down anymore, I would honestly read them all at some point =)
Happy Reading!

Try going to a local university library (even if you're not a student you can still get in) and locate various books by these guys. Then, at your leisure, you can peruse them and compare, and make your decisions that way.
