So Rob is both a good friend and at the top of my list for favourite local authors. He has won every major award for spec fic (Hugo, nebula etc) and the Order of Canada to boot! Totally nice guy as well.
He has a number of favourite books but I know Dune by Frank Herbert is right up there.
Pic is part of my RJS collection

My fav fantasy author is one of the the foundations of modern SF and Fantasy, Michael Moorcock. Picking one book of his is impossible.
His fav is hard, he wrote hundreds of reviews, introductions, academic works on fiction and obits for other authors.
So I go with his love of the feminist SF novel The Female Man by Joanna Russ of which he said
"Smarter and grittier than LeGuin, angrier than Octavia Butler...".
