Favorite Book

Titles only, no commentary whatsoever, even if its "only" a short word on your own book. I will not tolerate any rule-breaking. Space-themed novels are encouraged, but any book will do. Books include, but are not limited to: Novels, anthologies, collections, short-stories, mangas, comics, eBooks, novellas, trilogies, sagas, etc.

You may include a single link to a summary if you wish. You may state an entire series as your choice if you cannot decide which of them you like most (Ex. Discworld). You may post multiple individual times, but never back to back. You may include the author's name. You may choose the same book as another poster, although original posts are encouraged.

Battletech: Pryde Trilogy

EDIT: The rules have been broken: Twice.

In short, if you throw a stone out of the rear window of your spaceship you will go faster.

The game was completed 8 years ago and we get a free expansion every year.

Arranging holidays in an embrace with the Starsector is priceless.
