I like Alexander McCall Smith's lesser known Scotland Street stories. I'm not sure if it is the real Edinburgh, but it's the one I know and love. Reply #81. Mar 09 13, 8:04 AM |

Robin Hobb's Liveship Traders, Farseer and Tawny Man trilogies. I like the Liveship series best of all (although I can't say that my view is shared by the majority of fans). For me they are the perfect example of what low fantasy should be. Reply #83. Dec 17 13, 4:58 PM |

I read Robin Hobb's Farseer trilogy. It was good but made me cry several times. For younger readers I highly recommend the Ranger's Apprentice series and it's brother series the Brotherband Chronicles. Reply #85. Mar 13 14, 3:11 PM |

The Series of Unfortunate Events - not the best, but definitely the weirdest books I have ever read. Reply #90. May 21 14, 3:18 PM |

Michael Connelly's Harry Bosch series and Robert Crais' Elvis Cole & Joe Pike series. Noir mysteries set in LA. Great writing. I also think Harry Potter and The Hunger Games are wonderfully well-written series. Reply #93. Jun 30 14, 4:48 PM |

Re: "Horatio Hornblower...C.S. Forester." I must make time to read those books someday. I've been told they're excellent, but I've not yet gotten around to reading them. Reply #94. Jun 30 14, 4:58 PM |

The Lord of the Rings. If I had time I'd read the "Poldark" series by Winston Graham. I've seen it on T.V as a miniseries and it's a great and gripping story. Reply #97. Jul 21 15, 8:55 AM |

My memory has just kicked in now. I read 7 books in a series on Rome and the Romans by Colleen McCullough - an amazing read and very meaty. Reply #98. Jul 21 15, 9:06 AM |

The Harry Hole novels by Jo Nesbo, the Department Q series by Jussi Adler-Olsen and Camilla Lackberg's Fjallbacka series. I also agree with the earlier poster who put Michael Connelly and Robert Crais, and I'd add the Kinsey Millhone series by Sue Grafton. And for a good laugh, the Discworld series by Terry Pratchett.
