The Dark Valley by Piers Brendon

[Col. Fishguts]

Just finished "The shadow over Innsmouth" by Lovecraft, short but nice.

[Mefustae]

I just finished reading "Stalingrad" and "Berlin", both by the same author (who's name escapes me), if you want to know a detailed picture of the Battles of Stalingrad and Berlin, read these books.

Just now, i've started 'Fortunes of War' by Stephen Coonts, an interesting tale of a Japanese invasion of Siberia to gain her precious Oil Reserves, and a crack American F22 Raptor Squadron sent to aid the Russians in defending the motherland...not a bad book, kinda like Tom Clancy, but he gets to the point a hell of a lot quicker...

The Deeper Meaning of Liff by Douglas Adams & John Lloyd.

As you can guess, I've not been reading all that much of late.

Ooh.  I have those, but I've never gotten around to reading them.  How are they?

Duodec bombs! Allotropic iron reactors! Negaspheres! Hyperspace tubes! Planets being smashed by tractor beams!

It's a fun, simple bubblegum space opera.

This Side of Paradise, F. Scott Fitzgerald

[mikhael]

Eric Flint's 1633, Charles Scheffield's Transvergence, David Eddings Sorceress of Darshiva, Stephen Baxter's Manifold: Origin.

Just finished Atlas Shrugged. Reminded me I'm not alone. Good stuff.

Terry Pratchett books.. lots of them. I'm now on my fourth Discworld novel picked at random from the selection (Small Gods, incase anyone cares). The man is a genius.

Stop stealing! I was going to post the exact same thing, but with Feet of Clay instead of Small Gods...

[pyro-manic]

Pratchett is great. Also be sure to read the Truckers Trilogy, The Carpet People and the Johnny and the ___ series (Only You Can Save Mankind!, Johnny and the Dead, Johnny and the Bomb). And also Good Omens, his collab with Neil Gaiman. Great stuff...

As for me:

The Art of Chi Kung - Wong Kiew Kit
Book of Five Rings - Miyamoto Musashi
Unfinished Tales - Tolkien

I've also got a couple of Chinese sword training manuals on order, and a copy of Paradise Lost that needs reading too. Busy, busy....

[Grey Wolf]

I'd recommend anything by Neil Gaiman, but I've started reading from a book of short stories he's written. Some of them are getting really odd...

Love All The People - The Letters, Lyrics and Routines of Bill Hicks I'm a big fan of his so I was given the book as a birthday present last year and I finally got around to reading it. Very interesting.

Robert Merle, a whole series of books about a guy during the 16th century, all written in french from that era, very cool read, and very funny expressions ( and now I have many new ways to say cr*p in french )

Ah! Good book. A bit repetitive, but interesting nonetheless.

Again with the "All Hail Stackpolla!"

And this isn't even a Battletech forum...

[redsniper]

He's really that good. I've only read one book by him that was crappy and even then it had some awesome parts.

[Kamikaze]

Foundation and Earth - Isaac Asimov - For some reason I'm reading this last book of the series about 6 years after I read the rest of the series.

How to Solve It - G. Polya - A book about solving math problems. Interesting because it has a lot of hypothetical dialogues.

The Riddle in Torsional Nest - Hiroshi Mori - Part of Hiroshi's long mystery series. It's the 18th book in the series.

Shiosai - Yukio Mishima - A Japanese classic about island life. English title is "The Sound of Waves".
