It's hard to pin down one favourite book but I'd say Something Wicked This Way Comes by Ray Bradbury and Storm of Steel by Ernst Junger are both right up there

This book is the anti-Ligotti for the following reasons:

1. It's actually good
2. The prose is well put together, colourful rather than over the top
3. It tackles a lot of the same themes, eg the inevitability of death, ageing, etc, but instead of throwing a depressive crying tantrum the author shows that not only is it something not to worry about, it's something to be laughed at
4. It isn't shilled endlessly by pathetic antinatalists, who are ideological detritus.

Hands down the best book I've read this year.
