    Fave 'modern day' fantasy = Harry Dresden (Jim Butcher)
    Fave 'vanilla' fantasy = Jimmy the Hand (Raymond E Feist)
    Fave 'humorous' fantasy = Sam Vimes (Terry Pratchett)
    Fave 'old-school' Sci-Fi = James Bolivar DiGriz aka 'The Stainless Steel Rat' (Harry Harrison)
    Fave sci-fi = Ciaphas Cain (Sandy Mitchell)

    And thanks for the suggestions I've gotten from this thread!

    Any Earthsea fans? Sparrowhawk/Ged is a great character. Great books.

    In early adulthood, I would have chosen Elric from Michael Moorcock's series. So brooding, so tortured, so conflicted!

    Older and wiser, I would choose either Lannister brother from ASOIAF, or any character of Joe Abercrombie. Any of them at all. He is that good.
