Hellboy: Seed of Destruction by Mike Mignola. It's a comic book, but a damn good one.

Well everyone heard about that book but what the hell...
It caused me to revolt practically against everything for a time in my life and is a masterpiece.

amadman · 10-23-2002, 03:49 PM

I am sure people have heard of it but I would have to go with Swan Song by Robert R McCammon

Its a bit long though.

Voodoo · 10-23-2002, 03:50 PM

I don't know. I've never heard of it. But, it was really good.

Non-canonized books? I recommend "The Infancy Gospel of Thomas". These are all public domain so you can read them online.

Gues what my favorite part of this one is?

Spoonie Luv · 10-23-2002, 04:45 PM

My favorite book that I'm sure no one ever heard of cause I can't even remember the name. When I was in the Navy, early 90's, we would get a box full of books occassionally. I remember picking out a non-fiction book; it was full of interviews conducted with former slaves in the U.S. during the great depression. Wish I could remember the name.

I preferred "Baal" by McCammon

Hmmm... favorite book that nobody has heard of, huh? "The Nature Of Personal Reality: A Seth Book" by Jane Roberts or "To Ride A Silver Broomstick" by Silver RavenWolf.

Sunshine McGillicutty · 10-23-2002, 08:41 PM

I'm a McCammon fan too, I think Swan Song was his best work. Shame he stopped writing.

"The Answer Is Always Yes" by Paul Foster
