I saw a lot of very good books so far and agree with many. Most of the classics are called that for a reason.

A couple more:

Dune - great sci-fi book in its own right with an underlying messiah complex. The rest of the series is good, even the stuff done by herberts son, but pales compared to the first

Enders Game - Excellent book, standalone first book of an otherwise lackluster series, but very much worth a read

Arthurs I like include:

Micheal Creighton (sp?) - his books are always way better than his movies. Once you skip the ten pages where he tries to impress you with his knowledge, the story is always good.

Raymond Fiest - if you like fantasy, he does a good job

Hemingway, Fualkner, Poe, L'amour (complete mind candy, but good in the deer stand)
