    Non-Fiction: Demon Haunted World by Carl Sagan

    Fiction: Ring by Stephen Baxter

    Series: Hmmm.. I haven't really read any series that I could rate as a favorite. I have quite a few Battletech books. They're OK, but I wouldn't call them great.

    "Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy" series by Douglas Adams -- Not sure which book was my favorite, as I tend to read them all one after another.

    Non-fiction I enjoyed "A Short History of Nearly Everything" by Bill Bryson.
