I would have to say Harry Potter, the books are just intense.

After reading them, harry feels so real to me.

Close after that would have to be either edward or alice cullen. I don't really like bella.

One of my all-time favourites is Bridget in "the black n tans" she's an Irish redhaired girl and her father gets beat up and imprisoned by the english "black n tans" and her mother is at home pregnant. It's a really sad book... :(

Harry Potter is definitely the best fictional character...............

Quasimodo remains my favorite fictional character because he portrayed someone who was ugly and deformed and how the overwhelming majority in society would not accept him because of those handicaps.

Gandalf, hands down the most bad muther*er ever to be thought up.

-hes a wizard... nuff said

-he always has something smart to say

-that beard... sexy.

-he is the wisest living man.

-he could crush anyone in a duel, anyone, ever.

Ender Wiggin - in sixth grade while everyone else was gaga over Harry Potter I was delving into the philosophical, quasi-religious, quasi-political world of the Enderverse for the very first time. I remember reading Ender's Game for the first time and sitting in amazement imagining the battle room, the mind game. It was at first a rollicking tale of a pre-adolescent sent to train for war, and was an exciting space adventure. But as time wore on I came to realize that there was more to Ender's story, it was not only a story of one boy but the story of humanity, it was simultaneously comedic and tragic. After finishing Ender's Game my first instinct was to read Speaker for the Dead but at the tender age of eleven diving into that philosophical minefield was like running into - a minefield. After a day of trying to "get into" the story I put it down, disappointed to find that Ender would not have many great adventures in space.

Years later when I picked up Ender's Game once more I was sucked into the world, suddenly new interpretations opened up and I began to understand the story more. Then, finally, I could read Speak for the Dead, Xenocide, and Children of the Mind. It was in the final trilogy that I truly appreciated Ender's character. He became a man of principle and thought, seemingly eternally dammed for the crime of xenocide he finally found peace on Lusitania.

Of course it was around this time that the shadow series appeared, and if I had discovered Ender's Shadow and Shadow of the Hegemon, in these I discovered everything that I had hoped Speaker for the Dead would be when I first attempted to read it. But that is precisely why I will always hold Ender in higher esteem than his "diminutive" protege.
