guessing everyone here is a scifi/fantasy fan?
I'll pick Left Hand of Darkness, Titus Groan, and Latro in the Mist as my top 3 sf/fan

Most definitely a fantasy/sci-fi fan!
Hmmm, how about top 5...this would probably need revised-
The Lord of the Rings by JRR Tolkien
A Song of Ice and Fire by George RR Martin (the first 3 books anyway)
Blindsight by Peter Watts
The Last Castle by Jack Vance
Dune by Frank Herbert

Which reminds me of another book with the word castle in it-
The Man in the High Castle by Philip K Dick

Hmmmm.. best fantasy series for me has to be "The Wheel of Time" even though a few of the books in the series are stinkers.
For Sci-Fi, fun reads are the Miles Vorkosigan Series of books. For harder SF series I liked Asimov's "I Robot" series, the Ringworld series, and the original Dune series of books.
So many authors, so little time!

Larry Niven's Known Space! I might have to reread them now! And Asimov's Foundation Trilogy was a classic. Brian Aldiss's Helliconia Trilogy was also a classic...and throw in Steven Erikson's Malazan series...
