Top 10 List

I'm interested to know your top 10 favorite award winners. After ten, I start to become inconsistent, and my favorites change depending on what I've read or reread lately. But the top ten stay very consistent. After you've written yours, scroll down for mine. (no fair peeking before you choose)

mebrock,

I am still trying to get a copy of The Hero and the Crown. Where did you get your copy, if I may ask.

Sharon.

Sharon, I found it on Amazon. I think I purchased it new, in paperback. I'd like to get a good hardback of it, though.
