Re: For the moment... GateKeeper Send a noteboard - 23/04/2010 01:59:34 AM
In no particular order:

1. Anathem
2. Dead Beat (Dresden Files)
3. LotR
4. The Lies of Locke Lamora
5. The Dragons of Babel
6. Martian Chronicles
7. Assassin's Apprentice
8. The Name of the Wind
9. Is God A Delusion: A Reply to Religion's Cultured Despisers
10. Mistborn: The Final Empire

As allowed, this is not a "best" list, because I tend to favor good new books over good old books.



The Lies of Locke Lamora is #11 for me
