Hi all,
5-star books... I guess they are the ones I recall most fondly for one or more reasons. Here goes...and in no particular order...
David Guterson's Snow Falling on Cedars
A. C. Clarke's Rendezvous With Rama
Frank Herbert's Dune
H. G. Wells' Time Machine, Invisible Man, and War of the Worlds
Greg Bear's Anvil of Stars and Forge of God
Caleb Carr's The Alienist
Iain Pears' An Instance of the Fingerpost
Stephen Donaldson's Lord Foul's Bane Trilogy
- and from my badly misspent youth, The Golden Keel by Desmond Bagley (why it was never made into a film is beyond me - it is a great caper story), Night Without End by Alistair MacLean, and for a plot that is near-impossible to explain, Barkley Mather's The Springers.
Cheers,
