Favourite Sci-Fi or Fantasy Book Character

[Rodders]

I've always liked the grey characters and ant-heroes, so i think my favourite is the crew of the Nostalgia for Infinity, specifically Ilia Volyova. You know she's done some questionable, perhaps horrible things, but ends up doing the right thing anyway.

I'd love for Reynolds to return to the ship and tell Captain Brannigan's story.

A recent favourite is the intagliated Lededj Y'Breq from Iain M. Bank's Surface Detail. A book i found to be quite superb.

Rex from Adrian Tchaikovsky's Dogs of War.

 

[paranoid marvin]

Arthur Dent. Because I think all of us - to some extent - are Arthur Dent. I know I am.

 

[BAYLOR]

John Grimes the main character in A Bertram Chandlers Classic Space opera series .

 

[Maseeha.Aellari]

Probably Kvothe from The Kingkiller Chronicles. Can't wait for Doors of Stone to come out.

Pick a favorite character out of 50 years of SF reading? After contemplating punching you in the nose over the absurdity of the idea:

Captain Nemo from 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea
Professor Lupin from the Harry Potter series
Ogion from A Wizard of Earthsea
Atreyu from The Neverending Story
