I'm obviously a biased source, but I metaphorically keep the Vorkosigan books [0] in a similar place with (the more-famous) Discworld series by Terry Pratchett. Fun reads to return to that I find very quotable.

Interestingly, the first few books are about Miles' parents, but it's neat to see what the most popular character does/doesn't inherit.
