Also anything Tom Clancy, Michael Crichton, Christopher Paolini, C.S. Lewis, R.A. Salvator, Dennis L. McKeirnan and J.R.R. Tolkein write or have written appeal to me. R.A. Salvators still kinda new to me though.

Just a final note though, one should use caution with Tom Clancy as he isnt exactly the most clean writer.

Pilgrim's Progress, by John Bunyan. Best piece of Christian allegorical literature ever written, in my honest opinion.

1. Anything by Brian Jacques, especially Redwall [read the whole series twice in three weeks, accept for Loamhedge, Rakkety Tam, and High Rhulain, don't have them yet.] [my favorite ones so far are The Bellmaker, Taggerung, and Martin the Warrior]

2. Anything Tolkien

3. Chronicles of Narnia by C.S. Lewis [duh]

4. Chistopher Paolini [although I don't agree with his transcendentalist view of God, he still writes well]

5. Anything I write! lol

PM me if you like Redwall! I can't find anyone else that likes as much as me....yet!

Actually, he's a Mormon. Well, at least according to my Mormon friend who's grandparents know the Paolini family anyway.

Redwall's a good easy reading series, though I'm beginning to like the Flying Dutchman series more.

Try his Space Trilogy; I prefer them over his other works.
