As a massive Heinlein fan I’ll say Starship Troopers because I think that’s a fascinating discussion about what you owe your country or the price of citizenship. Since Heinlein is my favorite author I’ll pick another one as well.. A Scanner Darkly by Philip K Dick. I know he had drug issues and this book is an interesting look at the cycle of drugs and addiction and the ending was tragic but also very realistic. I like that the movie included his tribute at the end.

I don't know if I'd call it my favorite exactly, I don't really think of books, or movies, or games, or colors, etc. in terms like that - but I thoroughly enjoyed A&B Strugatsky's stuff. It's Russian (or Soviet, really) sci-fi, it's wildly different from what you're used to. They're the ones who wrote Roadside Picnic, the short story that inspired the Stalker games a few decades later. My favorite is The Doomed City.
