    Hi guys. I understand you disagree on the "Lord of the Rings isn't one book" take, and I do agree that it is one story. However, I'm not going to bend my rules for any series and it WAS released as 3 books. That's why I didn't count it as one. You, however, may do as you wish! Let me know your picks below.

    10. Lonesome Dove - Larry McMurtry 9. Hyperion - Dan Simmons 8. Jurassic Park - Michael Crichton 7. To Kill a Mockingbird - Harper Lee 6. Ender's Game - Orson Scott Card 5. Gone with the Wind - Margaret Mitchell 4. Lord of the Rings : The Fellowship of the Ring - J.R.R Tolkien 3. A Song of Ice and Fire : A Storm of Swords - George R.R Martin 2. It - Stephen King 1. Dune - Frank Herbert
  • @viceroy_raygun
    I would argue that The Lord of the Rings does count as one book, since Tolkien wrote it as such. There just wasn't enough paper post-war for his publisher to release it in one volume.
  • Glad you made this video, Mike! It must have been a tough one, but it's always a joy to hear your love of books!
  • You are at your most articulate when you talk about things you love. Great video, great books. Yay reading
  • @felixscout4047
    I read Lonesome Dove when I was on ship in the USMC 25 years ago. At that point it was the biggest book I had ever read and I remember when I finished I didn't want it to end. An amazing book.
  • @Dobr3967
    Greatly impressed by this list. Minor quibbles only. I was shocked that you started with “Lonesome Dove,” I’ve adored that book for more than 30 years. Much respect!
  • @stevenstewart782
    I think the book that most positively impacted my future in reading as a child was 20,000 leagues under the sea. It really launched my love of science fiction and adventure
  • @fehner27
    I love that IT was on here. The only book I've ever read twice. I loved it each time. One of my favorite characters is Mike Hanlon. King just created not just a horror book but a book that oozed out a sense of dread. The atmosphere hits you hard when you read it. Great video!
  • @celiwevngobese
    Great list! I didn’t think Dune could be knocked off my number one spot, but then I came across Hyperion!! Unforgettable.
  • @Danny_Matson
    Oh dang, I was calling for this on the discord years ago. Glad to see it is finally here! Looking forward to diving in later.
  • @BenderBrains
    Great list of books. You give enough description without any spoilers. I would enjoy seeing your next top 10 books of all time...
  • @jerricadouglas1520
    Recently subscribed to you and it was bc of your best Michael crichton list- low and behold I have jurassic park on my shelf so I finally cracked it open and wow! Just wow, I'm really enjoying it!

"East of Eden ' - John Steinbeck, "A wizard of Earthsea" Ursula Le Guin, "Goormenghast" - Mervyn Peake, "Blood Merridian" - Cormac Mcarthy, "Hyperion" - Dan Simmons, "Use of weapons" - Iain Banks, "The Magus" - John Fowles, "T he Shining" - Stephen King, "Smileys people" - John Le Carre, "Alice in Wonderland" - Lewis Carrol. And many more......
  • @TangerineGrizzly
    Thank you very much for this video. I came down with a terrible fever and was looking for some chill and fun bookish content to watch along with my evening porridge and tea. I went straight to your channel and voila! Keep up the good work sir
  • @murdermayhemuk
    To Kill a Mockingbird had such a profound effect on me as a child my eldest daughter is named Harper. Loved this list so many brilliant selections.
  • @thebrothersgwynne
    What a top 10! We need to read so many of these. I'll definitely be reading Lonesome Dove soon. It is also one of Ed's favourites of all time. Truth & Courage!
  • @imperator88vis67
    I love this channel; More than just reviews, it’s inspirational! Thanks for your work and your enthusiasm, Mike!
  • @RE-vl8ii
    Just found this channel and really like it. Mike is a great content creator. Very likable. And great videos. I often struggle on what to read next and look to videos like this to give me a little direction. Great work.
