Dune, by Frank Herbert.
Love the title."Death Be Not Proud" by John Gunther

Biography.
Remember the fuss about the book Primary Colors, originally attributed to Anonymous? Turns out the book was written by Joe Klein. Klein also wrote a biography of Woody Guthrie.
I've read many bios and Guthrie's is far from the most significant. But Klein's Woody Guthrie: A Life, is beautifully written. It's always stuck in my mind as a truly memorable biography. If anyone's into Woody, I highly recommend it.
