OK, here are some of my favorites:

1. The Princess Bride: William Goldman.
2. The Last Unicorn: Peter S. Beagle.
3. The Name of the Wind: Patrick Rothfuss.
4. Earthsea (Trilogy): Ursula K. Le Guin.
5. Wraith Squadron (Starwars X-Wing series): Aaron Aliston.

Each of these works deserves more of an introduction because they are all so wonderful in different ways, but I don't want to take up too much space here to write about them. However, if you are interested to know more about any of them and I'd be happy to share a bit about the book(s) and why I think it is so great.

Cheers,
