Of English translations, yes the KJV. But I'm Serbian, so I primarily read Serbian translations, or a bilingual Bible, side by side KJV and Daničić-Karadžić translation.
As for the translation biases, that's kind of a separate topic, and comparing translations is very interesting for me personally, I enjoy using that AndBible software.
Apocrypha too has interesting stories which influenced art, literature, etc. etc. etc. Definitely worth reading.
A side note, since you mention the biases, I think you might enjoy the book development of the New Testament canon, I don't remember the author or the exact book title, sorry about that. I find it fascinating that the only books of the Bible whose author is confirmed are seven pauline epistles (perhaps three more, I think yes, but I'm a layman). I could go on, but I have to stop somewhere.
