(We are lucky we don't have to, but if you did have to choose just one)For me it would be The Adversary Cycle. And it may surprise some, I wouldn't find it that hard to choose. Don't get me wrong I LOVE the RJ series and the LaNague seris (both with associated works). I am first and foremost a fan of horror fiction and the Adversary Cycle is what brought me to be the complete FPW geek that I am so that is why my choice would be easy.Anyone else?What he said.I loved the Adversary Cycle. They introduced me to FPW, I never grow tired of reading them So I agree I love RJ too, but the AC will always have a special place in my heart
Brian Wrote:Even though I haven't read Nightworld yet, the AC is horror at it's best.
The Mad American Wrote:Wow, I would say other than Reprisal, Nightworld is the strongest and most horrific in the AC series. I haven't read the revised version yet, just the original. Man you are in for a treat.
Brian Wrote:I've gotten some hints, but the scenes with Danny stick with you, you know?
The Mad American Wrote:Oh man, yes I know. Some of the most emotion evoking (invoking?) reading ever. Yeah.
Brian Wrote:I said this before. My parents had an old rotary phone in their basement, it rang one day while I was down there. That long continuous ring that made me stop what I was doing and sent a memorable chill down my back. I replaced the phone the next day.

(We are lucky we don't have to, but if you did have to choose just one)It's a tough choice. I was introduced to FPW by the novel THE KEEP, and I've bought and read everything he's written -- that I can get my hands on -- but to me, what would define my favorite series is the one I reread most often. And that would be the LaNague future-fiction novels.
