I read very little "pure" fiction. Not exactly novels, per se, but some of my favorite mostly-fiction:

the abridged version of Les Miserables, and then anything by David Brin especially the postman, not the crap movie Costner made.

Some good titles in this.....
I didn't think most of you could read that well. For a fast read.....Tom Brown Jr. |

Some of my favorites have already been posted, so here's an honorable mention:
Gone WIth The Wind Loooooong read, but well worth it for history dorks like me |
|
I forgot about one of my favorites when I was a younger man . . . Frederick Forsyth's "The Odessa File". I grew up in the 60's and 70's and I was always attracted to WWII-related stuff. Something more recent . . . Mark Ryan's "The Hornet's Sting"

Pretty much anything original Clancy, I don't read the post Clancy "Clancy" stuff.
Red Storm Rising is still my favorite but Sum of All Fears, Cardinal of the Kremlin and Debt of Honor are pretty high on my list. I like Brad Thor's stuff as well, Lions of Lucerne was the best. Early Dale Brown stuff especially Flight of the Old Dog. Stephen Coonts Liberty's Last Stand was really good and will make you order some more ammo, his most recent, I like all of the Grafton books. Larry Bond Red Phoenix Patrick Robinson Kilo Class and Nimitz Class Not novels but Stephen Ambrose history stuff is well written and his D Day book will keep you reading past bedtime if you like history. |

Under the Grandstands- Seymor Butts.
The Yellow River- I.P. Freely. |

I would say, just on the number of rereads, it would be Huck Finn.

Quoted: Tom Clancy's Without Remorse. It's packed full of a Special Forces bum murdering drug dealers with a "bang stick", and then feeding the corpses to the crabs off shore of New England.

I learned a lot about boats from that book. And alternative uses of a deep diver pressure chamber. |

I have thoroughly enjoyed the following series of novels:
All of the Tom Clancy books. Stephen Hunter's Bob Lee Swagger series. Stephen Hunter's Earl Swagger series. Dale Brown’s Patrick McLanahan series (starts with Flight of the Old Dog). Harold Coyle’s Scott Dixon series. If you enjoy novels about war at sea, check out Barrett Tillman. |

Its hard to pick a favorite book, but Chuck Palahniuk is probably my favorite author still writing.
