No particular order (and assuming I know what "book series" means):

Gor (must confess I read just about all of them but I skipped the "redundancy")
Just about any series Edgar Rice Burroughs did
Dune (trilogy, I suspect, instead of series)
LOTR (ditto)
"Stranger" (Heinlein - ditto)
Perry Rhodan (I must say about Last on my list)
Battletech (about half of them)

[edit] Oh, I forgot the "Dragon Riders of Pern" series.

Dirk Pitt Series (Clive Cussler)(Sp)
Stainless Steel Rat (Harry Harrison) Although the latest books were a bit odd.

In no particular order:

Honor Harrington,
Bazhell Banakson,
Drizzt Do'Urden,
Brain Defunct.

No, that Last one isn't a series. It's a statement.
