Yep. I'm not positive I have a favourite, but if I do then Sarantine is definitely in the running. Tigana has some strong points, and may be more well known, but there's some stuff in it that I don't think has aged very well at all, and some other stuff that irrespective of whether it has aged well or not is just a bit shit. Whereas I recall most of Sarantine being ace. Very, very strong books.
