The original Thrawn trilogy is good, but I personally prefer the reboot trilogy by Zahn. That's the character that we saw in Rebels, although he has a lot more depth in the books. His motivations for rising through the ranks of the Empire are not what you would expect them to be.
The second new trilogy goes into Thrawn's youth and culture, and while I still enjoyed those three books as well, I think you basically have to love Thrawn's character to get through them.
