mines Blood Meridian by Cormac Mccarthy
Last book I read was Twilight :o
It was so boring!
I'm actually not that big fan of books, but I do like J.R.R. Tolkien's LOTR trilogy and The Children of Hurin (I think that's the right name)
Dexter trilogy :D
english dictionary, cool book.
@OP: you could have added some info on that book to stimulate interest
for fantasy i'd also recommend reading tolkien (lotr trilogy & hobbit), roger zelazny (The Chronicles of Amber)
for horror my favorites are clive barker (weaveworld, hellbound heart) & stephen king (many)
for adventure try jf cooper (The Last of the Mohicans), karl may (Winnetou & others)
for mystic adventures a great one is carlos castaneda
for mystery/detective thrillers, Arthur Conan Doyle with his sherlock holmes series is essential
for SF, Arthur C. Clarke would be essential reading
as a side note, books are almost always the best (or more accurately the most comprehensive/engaging) way of getting 'entertainment' (movies & tv are just a pale imitation, often poisoned with corporate/holywood propaganda), but they require patience, privacy & time so that the reader can fully immerse himself in the story
Brave New World - Aldous Huxley
and The Art of War - Sun Tzu are my favourites
what's a book??:unsure:
M favorite ones are all the books of Barry Eisler. (really great thriller series about a half asian/ causcasian assassin) Even the information he gives when describing how to sneak on somebody or something like that sounds very realistic thanks to his former profession as a CIA Agent and his sources. :top:
reading is always good. ;) Much better than watching TV/movies I think, since your fantasy is trained too. ;)Quote:
what's a book??
THe three musketeers - all parts
no books for me...only movie XD
Ender's Game and Ender's Shadow - Greatest SciFi books i ever read
Also a big fan of Michael Crichton books - Kongo, Jurassic Park, Rising Sun and others
I've read Harry Potter all parts and there were quite interesting except some boring parts, but anyway it was great. And the movies i think were more boring, reading books were a bit more entertaining :)
There's nothing like Tolkien
Robert Anson Heinlein-Stranger in a Strange Land is my handbook
