I don't know that I could pick just one...I would really have to think about it for a while. I mean I seriously have an entire library in my house.

21-25 The Three Stigmata of Palmer Eldritch...Phillip K Dick
26-30 God Bless you Mr. Rosewater...Kurt Vonnegut

41-50 American Gods...Neil Gaiman
51>.. Everything Terry Pratchett ever wrote.

The Oatmeal Butterscotch paired with a Snickerdoodle
turned my cynical penis into a happy vagina
Then after an Oatmeal Cranberry and Double Chocolate,
it made my new vagina spontaneously sing the Trolololo Song in an elevator.

There's some delight in ale and wine,
And some in girls with ankles fine,
But my delight, yes, always mine,
Is to dance with Jak o' the Shadows.

Armor by John Steakley if only a single book.

Series would be Howard's Conan.

If I had to pick just one, it would be Red Storm Rising by Tom Clancy
