I would have to say Jules Verne, HG Wells, Their imagination was so far ahead of their time. Sometime ago I read a book called the Titan it was about a huge ocean going vessel that hit an iceberg, apparently it was written about 50 years before anyone thought of the Titanic? Stranger than fiction!

This is a bit of a subjective question, really. However, Don Quixote ranks as the best book of all time in some polls (I forget which ones.)
Personally, I think the greatest books of all time are Dante's Divine Comedy, Don Quixote, and War and Peace. Yes, I have read all three, and I love them dearly.

i think we possibly cannot answer this question so simply. i have read lots of fictions and have loved a lot of them. For me the greatest fiction book according to me is "The White Tiger." i cannot but say that other books are not great!

I really doubt that I can undertake to answer this truly, because there are so many "great" books that I haven't read yet.
I would say that Our Mutual Friend by Charles Dickens, Jane Eyre by Charlotte Bronte, and Wuthering Heights by Emily Bronte are top on my list.

Jules Verne has really good fiction, so do Victor Hugo and Edgar Allan Poe. fiction is a massive genre, there are too many good writers to mention

I vote for the collected works of James Michener and Clive Cussler. They are two authors I've been reading for years, and I keep going back to them.
