Via

chickenfeet2003 , who has a much more impressive line in favourite books than I

1. List three characters from ten favourite books.
2. Add last names if you wish.
3. Try to guess what the books are!
4. I have not used any Jane Austen novels, as they are too easily guessed (although I suspect the ~~novels~~ books I picked will be easily guessed as well. Well, maybe not one of them).
5. I reserve the right to be sneaky and use secondary characters.

1. Skip Devoe, Billy Keegan, Tim Pat Morrisey as

frankie_ecap figured out, "When The Sacred Ginmill Closes" by Lawrence Block
2. Private Pulsifer, Pippen Galadriel Moonchild, Wensleydale "Good Omens", By Terry Pratchett and Neil Gaiman,
