Personally, my favorite book is Hangmans Curse. It is a Christian book so some people might not like it. It's about these sort of psychological detectives. It's pretty cool. My 2nd favorite book is The Hobbit by J.R.R Tolkien. It's the prequal to LotR.

I don't know about my actual favorite, but some of mine are:
"Q", a novel by an ex-member of our church . It's a mystery involving the Dead Sea Scrolls and such things.
The LotR series (I hope I don't require much explanation for that.)
Assorted titles by G.A. Henty, a British author who lived in the late 19th and extreme early 20th Century(he died in 1902 I think) He wrote historical fiction.

Wasn't there already a book thread like this? Oh well, I'll post some of mine:

La Biblia (Spanish for Bible)
Ranger's Apprentice
Star Wars
Halo
Chronicles of Narnia
Lord of the Rings


...and a few others I can't think of atm.

We had a topic like this not very long ago. I don't read a lot but some of my favorites are,

-The Lord of the Rings series
-Chronicles of Narnia

I haven't personally read Hangman's Curse but we have the movie. I haven't read The Hobbit either yet but all of J.R.R. Tolkien's books are interesting.

First off: Bible
Novels: anything by Jules Verne and H.G. Wells (science fiction is ftw)
Thr3e-Ted Dekker
and more... it's hard to pick out favorites...

1. Practically anything by Terry Pratchett.
2. Stephanie Meyer's Twilight series (especially the last one).
3. Philip Reeve's Mortal Engines series (especially the last one..once again. Hmmm.) and Here Lies Arthur
4. Jonathon Stround's Bartimaeus Trilogy
5. Phillip Pullman's Northern Lights/The Golden Compass. The later books in the series weren't as well written but were still okay.

EDIT:

Just remembered:

Neil Gaiman's American Gods, Neverwhere and Sandman.

I made a thread just like this a few months ago... ah, well.
No particular order

LoTR / the Hobbit
The Bartimaeus Trilogy
Dune
The Zombie Survival Guide / World War Z
The Ask a Ninja Ninja Handbook
Ruruoni Kenshin
Weird US series
Bible
Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy
Lots of other stuff.

Prettymuch anything written by J.R.R. Tolkien, Ted Dekker, or Joel Rosenberg

A lot of these books sound really cool (though, I've never heard of most of them)
Another one of my favorite book is also the Bible (And no, I'm not trying to turn this into a religious topic)

Uhhh... Can't say. Probably Eldest by Christopher Paolini.

Also Dan Brown Books are well done like Deception Point or Angels and Demons.

A writer is told she needs to come to Australia to accept an award for her writing about the Aboriginals, except when she gets there she is swept away to the outback for months to truly experience the lifes of the people she is writing about. Nature, finding food, living in a world most of us could never endure.

Why I like it: I play the didjeridoo professionally and I enjoy old culture of Aussie.

I'm might seem a little crazy for this, but...

Crime and Punishment by Fyodor Dostoevsky

It's such a compelling work, and what's surprising is that parts of it are absolutely hilarious.

- a series of unfortunated events by lemony snicket
- the edge chronicles (all 9 1/2 books) by paul steward and chris riddle
- genesis trilogy by Wolfgang Hohlbein (one of his better series, some are absolute crap)
- Artemis Fowl series by eoni colfer
- disney: uncle scrooge series by don rosa (comic books)
- barks libary series by carl barks
- thrawn trilogy by timothy zahn
- kai maier trilogys
- die drachenkämpferin trilogy by licia troisi (couldnt find the english name of it)
- hitchhikers guide to the galaxy books, spaceship titanic and dirk getlys holistic detective agency by douglas adams

WIN.
I still haven't read Hard Contact, though. Read all other 12 books you mentioned, all within a span of maybe a year. And when I started, most of the others weren't even out yet

The Name of the Wind By Patrick Rothfuss was pretty amazing.

One of my favorite books (it's lower on the list because it swears a TON) is Flight by Sherman Alexie. It's about an Indian/Irish juvenile delinquent. (EXPLICIT WARNING)

--The Inheritance Series
--Enemies Foreign and Domestic
--Legacy of Heorot
--Anything by John Ringo and Robert A. Heinlein
--The South Was Right!
(No this is not a statement it is merely the title of a book that gives the uncorrupted truth on The War of Northern Aggression.
