My own preference--and what we use for The Raintown Review--is Garamond. I can't remember what Seven Towers did for my second book (probably a case of suppressing the memory), but an ugly, overlarge font competed with grainy, dodgy, obtrusive graphics in sabotaging the book. I can barely stand to look at it at this point. The thing is, with desktop publishing these days, you really can experiment a bit without running up huge costs, so no book need ever look like a night orc's sphincter ever again.
