One? Oh dear. Umm. If you're a person who'd prefer to start at the beginning, his first adult novel The Lion of Boaz-Jachin and Jachin-Boaz is pretty good and establishes some of his running themes. Otherwise, favourites would be: Kleinzeit, a thoroughly readable little story about love, heroism, London, hospitals and poetry addiction. Riddley Walker, a once-fashionable, post-apocalyptic fairytale featuring much mythologisation and fernetick spelin.
