Favourite Book Dedications & Sizzling Starts

[Albertosaurus Rex]

I have always been rather fond of the dedication to Jeff Grubb's The Brothers' War. You know, the novel about the brothers Urza and mishra who go to war against each other, lay waste to an entire continent and plunge the world into a dark age:

To my own brother Scott

who will agree that we got along much better

than Urza and Mishra

You really can't dedicate a book like that to anyone else.
