The Best book you OWN

[Nifarious]

The Oxford English Dictionary...al 19 volumes.

Though to be fair, my favorite book is probably Blanchot's Infinite Conversation...though that's a very tentative favorite among many.

 

[Cazza]

The Hobbit

It's one of the few books I own (most are from school days). This is a clear winner.

 

[Pegghead]

Mortal Engines. Best book ever written in my opinion, few else can match cyborg bounty hunters, moving cities, resurrected "Old tech" laser weaponry, cities in the sky, a destroyed earth, a war between tractioners and anti-tractioners, a steampunk aesthetic this book is just AWESOME!

I've read every book in the series (the first was my favourite) yet I haven't read anything else by Phillip Reeve, I was curious about Larklight though, is it any good?

 

[Vrach]

One of my favourite books to date, gotta love the Dune series :>

 

[Feste the Jester]

Mark Twain is such a good author.

 

[deth2munkies]

Changes: A Novel of the Dresden Files

Most epic battle in any medium.

 

[captaincabbage]

I instantly think of Feet of Clay by Terry Pratchett.

How do you even get a hold of it? I've done some research, and I have yet to find a local retailer that carriers it. Is it only available through the Internet on Amazon or something?

Can't really help you there. I won one from the Metro 2033 Facebook page.

I've seen a few copies in Waterstones if that helps?

 

[Wintermoot]

The Retro Mancer one of the few books I enjoined reading (I hate reading and picked it up because of the title and cover)

 

[Fearzone]

Atlas Shrugged, by Ayn Rand.

Get it. Read it. Full disclosure: I don't actually own it since I gave my copy to a freind.

 

[SaunaKalja]

The Name of the Wind. Patrick Rothfuss is the man. The second part of the series, "The Wise Man's Fear", is the only book I've ever anxiously waited to be published.

 

[TheHecatomb]

Art & Illusion by E. H. Gombrich.

I'm not into fiction.

 

[tzimize]

Unsure, its one of my Terry Pratchett books for sure, but I dont know if its Good Omens or the Terry Pratchett quote collection. I'm thinking the latter, because...I'm sure it breaks SOME kind of law to have that much awesomeness in one book.

 

[MetroidNut]

Damn. Ninja'd by the original poster.... But, hey. Good to see more Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy fans.

 

[MrMixelPixel]

Still not done reading this thing. The Icewind Dale series of books is nice too.

I almost missed this.

With out a doubt, the Necronomicon is the best book I own.

 

[dark-amon]

Classics of Philosophy. It contains a translated collection of the most important works from more than 42 of the greatest philosophers of the western world

 

[Spellmaster]

Honestly i have so many, but i'd have to say either, my hard cover Forgotten realms editions [3 or 4 in 1] or my hard cover of The Hobbit

I cant believe I've gone 7 pages in and not seen a single reference to either david gemmell or david eddings. My favourite book (series) are:
Raymond E Feist - The Riftwar saga.
David Gemmell - The Rigante (preferred it over the numerous drenai books)
David Eddings - The Belgarion/Mallorean
