The Death's Gate Cykle (all seven books) by Margaret Weis and Tracy Hickman. They have the most interesting plot i have ever read.

Frostmage, I liked also Deathgate Cycle. The world was so unique and strange, and characters did things that I never expected. The books were great.

The best book I've read is Lord of the Rings. I don't have any special reason for that - it just is. :)

Isn't there already a thread for this? Unless the word "ever" will change the subject significantly..

Yes, there is, and not just one... Boo there was warned not to make any new topics and he's managed to prove in the first that he should have heeded that warning. But it's too late to repent now.
