What is the best edition to read the entirety of his works in?
Preferably in English, I can read Latin but not well enough that I’d want to read hundreds of pages of someone with a writing style as autistic as Spinoza.
Can anybody tell me what they think his most key works (besides Ethica) are?

The political-theological treatise which can serve as an introduction to hos ethics. Iirc besides these two the other works aren't related to his philosophy.

Spinoza's Latin is easy to read but I agree that you wouldn't miss out on much in translation in a work like the ethics. Curley's translation is considered the best to my knowledge.
