I want [read: need] a good, sink your teeth in, standalone novel. I really like Speculative Fiction. Fantasy is my favorite genre. Scifi is a distant second. I haven't been a big fan of horror since highschool, but I'm willing to give it another go.
Or maybe I just need to get away from my comfort zone altogether, and try something completely new/different. *shrug*

I'm staying away from series right now, but, Dark Tower has been on my "one of these days" list for a while. I've not read any of the others.

Read any of Robert A. Heinlein's pre-1970's books including the
Schribners Juveniles.
Tunnel in the Sky and
The Door Into Summer (not a Juvenile) are favorites of mine as is his fantasy epic!!!
Glory Road!
