This may sound odd, but my favorite book is different than the best book I've read.
Favorite book: Halo: Ghosts of Onyx
Best book: World War Z
I don't read as often as I want to, and I read slow so I haven't read too many books.

swan song = epic. love that book.
my favorite series is the orphan series by Robert Buettner. military scifi, but the guy was in a MI divisionand the military is done REALLY well. it's not very scifi in the first two, or rather it's very grounded in modern tech, but the cool thing is that through the series you get to watch them go from one cobbled together beater of an emergency interplanetary troop transport, to a fleet of top notch intergalactic warships. very cool series, highly recommended for anyone into scifi, military, or both. and of course swan song = epic
I agree about the halo books, as a fan of the universe I love them but some of them are terrible eg Halo the flood. A halo game's plot a good book does not make.
I'll make sure to check it out. Another very interesting book is Wild swans. Especially if you like asian culture.

My favorite book is usually the one I am reading, if it is good. Just finished Game of Thrones, by George RR Martin, and started the second one, A Clash of Kings. Both really good, have not seen the TV show yet, so I don't know what to expect if I watch it.
I watched the first episode, going to my brothers apartment Wednesday to watch more. Before I even started reading the book my sister told me Sean Bean dies, so of course after starting the book I figured who was going to die.... lol
Wow, somehow missed this thread...
I can't pinpoint it down to one book in particular, but the dark tower series...even though I found the ending to be a letdown, still I hold it in the highest regards possible...quite curious how the movie/tv/movie thing us gonna play out. But just thinking back about the different parts of the series still gets to me..years later...
