OK I have had enough of you and your polls MovieMaker. If you are going to ask someone their favorite book series do not post a poll asking which one is the best because guess what you have always and will always miss atleast one or two because you are two young to remember all the book series ever released. If you want to do a thread like this post a list of suggestions in your first post of the thread and then let people answer for themselves.

Now do not go and make a brand new thread with the comments I just told you added in, just remember next time that you do not know every single book series, movie series or television series out there to make a poll. Please, please, please take the advice that has been given to you on numerous occasions and use the search function because I am willing to bet that this has been done a time or 2 before.

He left a space for "not listed" just let him be DJ.

My only problem with his poll is that he allows multiple choices... which really dosen't work well if he is asking for the best.

Nextime you make a poll moviemaker make sure that you use rodio buttons and not check boxes.

I decided not to be an ass, so I only had planned on voting for one. Then I got caught up in something and ended up voting for all of them. ;)

Why did you and psychomike vote for all of them? I didn't give you the option for voting for more than one book series so you can vote for all of them. I did it in case there were two or three book series that you couldn't decide between and you had no choice but to vote for both or all three. I don't mean it in a rude way so please don't think of me mad at you. I'm just asking you kindly.

well no one was voting... I thought if I voted for all of them it would spark some interest in the poll.... and well torn dosen't have an original idea he just copied me j/k... I really don't know why torn voted for all of them.

Also you left off some of the greatest series of all time.

My favorite would be Stephen Kings Dark tower series.

My favorite when I was a kid The Chronicles of Prydain from Lloyd Alexander.... I don't think they are in print right now so you may not find them on amazon.

You left out a lot of great fantasy series...some of the best in fact
The Chronicles Of Thomas Covenant
A Song Of Ice And Fire
The Wheel Of Time(ok i know it`s.. s""tass long)
Magician(Riftwar)
The Dark Tower
Farseer Chronicles/Liveships

you should have just asked us for what we consider the best and left it at that......

I actually choose not to choose between
The lord Of The Rings
Discworld
A Song Of ice And Fire

Terry Pratchett isn't famous for "The Wee Free Men". :rolleyes: He's famous for Discworld. The entire series is ONLY about thirty books...and rolling.

From the list I voted for Lord of the Rings. But my absolute favorite series isn't on there - they are the books by James Herriot: All Creatures Great and Small, All Things Bright and Beautiful, All Things Wise and Wonderful, and The Lord God Made Them All.

Harry Potter - some of the most creative I've read
Earthsea - great trilogy...can't wait for the mini
Hardy Boys - vaguely remember them, but they were good
