I'm going on vacation towards the end of next week, and I've been browsing my bookshelves, looking for a nice thick book to read while I'm gone.
There are several series of books that I really like. Here is a list off the top of my head. Have you read any of them? Could you suggest others?

I've read the asimov trilogy but not beyond. Have read the first dune book. Have several campbell books and usually pick through them instead of cover to cover.
Any Tom Robbins book is worthy. My favorite one is ... sorry can't choose one favorite. I love them all. He's a master storyteller. At the top of my list are Jitterbug Perfume, Skinny Legs and All, Even Cowgirls get the Blues, and Fierce Invalids home from Hot Climates.
If you're looking for a series, John Updike's Rabbit series is exceptional. Harry "Rabbit" Angstrom is everyman.
Not a good choice if you're looking for entertainment. An excellent choice if you're looking for keeping it real.
