My library
C.S Lewis, The Chronicles of Narnia. I loved them as a child and so they'll always stick with me.
Robert Howard, Conan the Barbarian. This character was around since the early 1930's and first appeared in Wierd Tales. A kind of magazine. Conan has been around ever since in many forms but Howard's original stories are gripping and laced with social commentary. They were written in a fashion you don't see anymore.
Frank Herbert, Dune. Heavy read but awesome.
H.P. Lovecraft, Poe has nothing on this guy.
I also read Star Wars and Forgotten Realms novels. A bit of a childish indulgence.
Otherwise the bulk of my library is WW2 history, art books, and other historical works.
