What is your favorite fantasy book?

[Garenex]

Many books have been mentioned that I greatly enjoy. Redwall, Belgariad, Sword of Truth, the list goes on...

But at the top of the list is and always will be...

The Lord of the Rings and the Chronicles of Narnia. These were among the very first fantasy series I ever got really into (with Narnia starting around seven) and will always remain at the top of my list.

Redwall is contesting with Adventurer's Wanted by M.L. Forman and Michel Scott's Secrets of the Immortal Nicholas Flamel for my favorite. I also enjoy Children of the Lamp by P.B. Kerr (What with all the initials?) along with Gregor chronicles and Artemis Fowl (which is almost Sci-fi but yet somehow not)
and the Stone Heart trilogy was really good.
I'm also big into a couple other series but they're more Sci-fi than fantasy.

I'd say the Dragons of Winter Twilight. I've loved that whole series since the first book came out. I still buy them when the money is there

The Lord of the Rings, obviously. I also love, love, LOVE the Song of Ice and Fire series, though I daresay that's a result of Stockholm Syndrome brought on by how GRRM manages to get you attached to characters and then kills them in shocking, gruesome manner. Brienne of Tarth, next to Tyrion Lannister, are my two favorites, which means they'll probably be getting killed sooner or later...

The original Robert E. Howard Conan stories will always reside at the very top of my list of favorites.

My favorite book of his is Swordwoman which contains the only three stories about a character known as Dark Agnes. It also has a tale about my favorite character of his Black Turlough. Conan, Solomon Kane, Bran Mac Morn, Kull, Cormac Mac Art, the real Red Sonja and the list goes on and on. He also wrote amazing westerns, boxing tales (Steve Costigan And Dennis Durgan are hilarious), oriental and middle eastern adventures. He even wrote Cthullu stories (which I prefer to H.P. Lovecraft). If you want to know more about the man check out the movie The Whole Wide World.

He has another character that can 'see' his previous lives. He re-cants his tales of high adventure and you never know if that incarnation will live or not. Greatest yarn spinner ever.

I absolutely love R.A.Salvatore's Drizz't novels. I have read all 20 or however many their are.
