Harry Potter. Anything by Ayn Rand, Jordan Peterson, Richard Dawkins or Sam Harris.

I don’t like it and I wish they would stop. More books for me. Too many. It’s a serious problem and the people who don’t read are to blame.

Social bandit. Robin Hood without the tights and the drunken cleric. Not sure how practical a lone bandit would be however. Robin Hood and his non-existent merry men.

More realistically a scribe in a monastery.

Jaws is the obvious one but I’ll say Dune too. The Villaneuve version. I should probably read the book again. It is possible to have great ideas but be a poor writer. See also Stephen King at times.

The Wizard of Earthsea (and sequels) by Ursula Le Guin. Thoughtful, deep and still fresh in a sea of excessively long and plodding fantasy fiction.

The Lord of the Rings by Tolkien. I first read this when I was twelve and it started my intense and deranged love of fantasy. Few writers of high fantasy since have lived up to it. Few writers have had such an immense (and not always positive) influence on a genre.
