I have to go with Warhammer 40,000 Not from jut the games but the sheer enormity of the histories and stories for each race and world and character. I thouroughly recomend reading through the Warhammer 40,000 fluff bible ( found http://files.meetup.com/984055/Warhammer%2040K%20Fluff%20Bible.pdf PDF or for a more complete version http://www.scribd.com/doc/7027523/Warhammer-40K-Fluff-Bible ). It is a universe of epic preportions with a story and mythology that can only come with something that has been around for as long as warhammer 40,000.
On the total other end of the spectrum i do have argree with Vrex360 and Daveman in that the Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy is fantastic. Douglas Adams was possibly the funniest author in the English language. We shall not see his like again.
" Humans had always felt superior to dolphins as they had achieved so much; New York, the Wheel, Wars etc. Whereas, all dolphins did was splash around having a good time. Dolphins had always known they were more intelligent than humans for exactly the same reason." - Douglas Adams
