Favorite Piece of Literature

[CanadianNoOB]

The "Saddest Character" thread got me thinking of some of my all time favorite works.

I'll start with mine ranked in order.

1) Ender's Game - Orson Scott Card

This is my favorite novel, arguably one of the best sci-fi novels ever written.

2)Brave New World - Aldous Huxley

A somewhat bright look at what some might consider a perfect world, but it has its flaws which are outlined in the novel.

3) A Handmaids Tale - Margaret Atwood

If you couldn't tell I love scifi and dystopic themed works.

4) Watchmen - Alan Moore

A great read! So much better than the film

So long and thanks for all the fish!

You got some good works on that list my fellow Canuckistanian. Brave New World is among my favourite novels and Watchmen is an amazing GN, I agree, much better than the film.

I am currently rereading Stranger in a Strange Land - Robert Heinlein. It is probably my favourite science fiction novel(also arguably one of the best sci-fi novels ever written), I highly reccomend it.

 

[DUCE]

One of my favorite books was one I read way back in the day... Flowers for Algernon. Freakin sad book.
