I saw the movie No Country for Old Men and enjoyed it so much I decided to read the book by Cormac McCarthy. I got into it but couldn't finish it, the writing just didn't attract me. Supposedly his other books are also good but I could never convince myself to try them. I don't know if the screen adaptation of No Country for Old Men was true to the book or if the screen writing improved on the book.
Two other of his books have also been or are going to be made into movies. Depending on what the story lines are I may try the movies when they come out.
Many of my favourite series have been mentioned here by other posters.
