The best books I've ever read are Lord Of The Rings (Tolkien) The Hobbit (Tolkien) It (Stephen King) The Stand (Stephen King) Ramses (5 books by Christian Jacq) Some books by Anne Rice (Interview With An Vampire,...)

I forgot : The dark tower series by Stephen King

"The Wheel Of Time" series, by Robert Jordan. I consider it to be a close second to Tolkien's works. Logain

Hitchhiker's Guide... I forwent sleep just to read more... If there was more, a lot more, I probably still wouldn't have gone to sleep.

Don't know if this thread is already dead. Nevertheless, I will post the top five of my all time favourites: Position 5: All books with "Kurt Wallander" as main character (Henning Mankell) - especially the books "Firewall" and "The Dogs of Riga" Position 4: Chronicle of undying (Wolfgang Hohlbein) Position 3: Harry Potter (Joanne K. Rowling) - all books but especially "The prisoner of Azkaban" and "The Deathly Hallows" Position 4: The Sillmarillion (J. R. R. Tolkien) Position 1: The Lord of the Rings (J. R. R. Tolkien)

1) Drizzt Chronicles (and Sellsword Trilogy) by R.A. Salvatore 2) Ice and Fire Saga by George R.R. Martin 3) Demon Wars by R.A. Salvatore

oh yes Daimonion, one i remember good readed, was "Tommyknockers" by Stephen King....read it if you can...

Position 4: Chronicle of undying (Wolfgang Hohlbein) Your right, this is a great series. Did you read the "Sorcerer (Hexer)" series by Hohlbein. This are really nice books, too.

oh yes Daimonion, one i remember good readed, was "Tommyknockers" by Stephen King....read it if you can... Yeah, I've read it. I'm a big fan of Stephen King and have nearly all the books.

Did you read the "Sorcerer (Hexer)" series by Hohlbein. Do you mean "The Scorcerer of Salem" or "The Magician"?? I read both of these book series. They are also really amazing stories, as the most of the books of Wolfgang Hohlbein. Nevertheless, nearly the best ones are the parts of the "Chronicle of undying". B.t.w.: Have you already read the last two parts of the "Scorcerer"? I haven't read them till now (think they are "The son of the sorcerer" and "The house of evil dreams".

I mean the "Sorcerer of Salem" and I've read all the books, I hope

The Kalevala. Finland's national epic which inspired also Tolkien pretty much the most. There's a small introductory in LOTR dvd's making of -documentaries in the special extended versions. The language researcher's attempt on talking Finnish there is just pretty much hilarious to a native finn though

Haha, sounds fun. Too bad I'm not finnish so I cannot laugh so much then Always fun to hear other people try to speak your language

The Lord of the Rings. Nothing yet came to make my mind change.

Starship Troopers. But that's just this minute. I have so many.

The Symphony of Ages by Elizabeth Haydon is definitely number 1 in my mind.

Brandon Sanderson's Mistborn is one of the best fantasy books ever. Wizard of Earthsee is awsome as well.

Omero: "Iliad" Dante: "The Divine Comedy" Milton: "Paradise Lost" Shakespeare: "Hamlet" Tolkien: "Lord of the Rings"

My favourite: The Count of Monte Cristo

I know it's a cliché, but LOTR, The Hobbit are my all-time favorites. and Kristin Lavransdattar by Sigrid Undsett. Also recently discovered George R.R. Martin's A Song of Ice & Fire series & can't stop thinking about it.
