I'm reading Hellspark again; can't remember how many times I've read it since it was first published, back in the late '80s. It's one of my comfort books, along with Pride and Prejudice, The Witches of Karres, Cotillion, and The War for the Oaks.

So -- what are your comfort books?

Ah, a post I can't resist replying to... I am a fan of your Liaden series and thus have been haunting your LJ for a few months now. Hi!

The Last Unicorn is one of my favorite comfort books, along with some of The Sandman books, and parts in the Silmarillion about Feanor and his line. The grand epic language used to throw me, but by now I know the story so well that it's just nice to read.
