Parliament of Whores...honestly, anything by PJ rocks my socks, but I just love the title of "Give War a Chance."
Orwell was a commie? *is confoozled* But I thought Animal Farm and 1984 were anti-communist books...
I have all the Narnia books too, but I was too lazy to go down and actually pick my favorite one. I haven't read the LotR Trilogy yet; still working on it. I think I might have Last Chance to See but haven't read it yet either. I've got about 40 books downstairs waiting for my attention...and about 15 up here next to me. Including my recently published Mom's book. *headdesk*
I love everything by Clancy, but Executive Orders is far and above my favoritest, because it's such an indictment of the press. I want the fictional Jack Ryan as my President. *shamelessly fangirls* Clancy definitely gets into the techie part of the equipment that he writes about, but I love his characters as well, and how he weaves them into his books, and how they encounter each other through time.
Lad: A Dog probably isn't my favorite Terhune book, either, but it's the one that defines him and probably the one he's most famous for. Picking one favorite book by my favorite authors? Nearly impossible. LOL Looking at the list, I pretty much picked titles at random (or the first book in a series) from them.
