Your current book...

[JokerCrowe]

Hyperion by Dan Simmons. It's brain warping fun. (^^_^^)
Serioulsy, It's like the Lord of the Rings, only set 700 (or so) years in the future. I really recommend it if you like epic SciFi.

 

[senorfatso]

beyond good and evil by Nietzsche which is actually part of a massive brick of a compilation of his works, serious stuff and a little on the heavy side

I've gotten about 100 pages into that and have given up on it for now, most of its going over my head. I should read Thus Spoke Zarathustra first methinks.

Otherwise, I'm reading Plato's Republic and Tolstoy's Anna Karenina, both very impressive pieces

 

[EMFCRACKSHOT]

Right now i'm reading On War by Clausewitz (unabridged), The Penguin Book of Norse Mythology, European Armies and the Conduct of War by Hew Strchan, The second Gaunt's Ghosts omnibus by Dan Abnett, Honoured Enemy by Raymond E Feist and Machiavelli's The Art of War.
Honoured enemy is a must for any fans of the Riftwar, Gaunt's Ghosts is Gaunt's Ghosts, what more need i say about it?
The others are good if you are interested in the related subject matter, but if you aren't then you would likely find them very dull

 

[Kiefer13]

Ender's Game by Orson Scott Card. I'm about halfway through and really enjoying it so far.

 

[havass]

I'm...still not done with the last book of Douglas Adams' hitchhiker trilogy. D:

 

[Dash85]

Small Gods by Terry Pratchett then I'm moving to Guards! Guards!

 

[AWAR]

Foucault's Pendulum by Umberto Eco along with a collection of his semiotics back in the early 90's
The trial records of Louis XVI - Fascinating if you are into this kind of stuff
and Knut Hamsun's Growth of the Soil - I had a funny feeling while reading this, almost religious.

 

[Helios_(DEL)]

naruto volume 15, the darkness compendium vol 1, the war of the worlds, roadside picnic , the bourne identity yes quite alot lol

 

[Helios_(DEL)]

On a recent trip to USA , I buyed almost all the Halo books. I red First Trike and now Im reading Contact Harvest. If you are a fan of Halo , they are pretty good.

Also Im reading Naruto and Lucky Star.

I like to read.

[That's Funny]

Batman: Year One by Frank Miller

From Hell by Alan Moore

And Dracula by Bram Stoker

 

[Danish_4116]

Task Force Black- Mark Urban

It's the true story of a British-US-Australian-Canadian Task Force formed in order to basically kill as many Taliban and Al-Qaeda High Value Targets as possible.

Wikileaks: Inside Inside Julian Assange's War on Secrecy by David Leigh and Luke Harding. Actually a pretty interesting book, its written from the angle of David Leigh who works for the Guardian newspaper and who had a lot of meetings with Assange. It also has an appendix which takes up almost a third of the book.

Mostly though I tend to read books for my history course, just finished reading Wallace Terry's Bloods and there is a ton of books that I have been using for my dissertation. Although saying that I have only read a couple of them cover to cover, usually only the relevant parts are required:

The Provisional IRA by Patrick Bishop and Eamonn Mallie
The Dirty War by Martin Dillon
The Troubles by Tim Pat Coogan
Provos The IRA & Sinn Fein by Peter Taylor
Armed Struggle: The History of the IRA by Richard English
The Irish War by Tony Geraghty
The Crowned Harp by Graham Ellison and Jim Smyth
UVF: The Endgame by Jim Cusack and Henry McDonald

Yeah, writing Dissertations can be.....................interesting sometimes.

I'm actually reading Death Troopers right now. It's okay. Better than the regular Star Wars books.

Death Troopers is a pretty good book, but I found that I liked Red Harvest more... Have you gotten to the huge surprise cameo yet?

I just finished Mogworld (amazing book btw, Yahtzee outdid himself), and now I have decided to read LOTR in its entirety. I've already read the hobbit, which was awesome.

Both of those choices are amazing reads!

Especially Mogworld... Oh, that crazy Jim!

Just about to start Dune. Heard it's really good, but it sucks I have a deadline to finish it.

Tell me how the book goes, I've been wanting to read it for a while now!

 

[standokan]

I'm ABOUT to finish the hobbit, it can't compete with the Lord of the Rings but it's nicer to read, but that's just because LotR was a pain in the ass to read.

 

[Dizeazedkiller]

Reading Airman by Eoin Colfer (perhaps my sixth read of it since i bought it?) and its brilliant, although i have to give a mention to the four books of Age of Unreason by Greg Keyes. It is so damn amazing, and i think one of the only books I've read that seem to have a totally original concept. Don't get me wrong, i've read alot of books that bring a new sort of feel to reading but this series stands out. I'd say i want it made into a movie but look what happened to Harry Potter? i wouldn't want to risk that. Apologies for the raving.

 

[ThatLankyBastard]

Communist Manifesto (I finally get to finish it, my old copy was confiscated by one of my teachers.)

Really! Why would they do such a thing?

Warcraft Archives by multiple authors
Great works!

I loved all four of the stories, such a great read!

BTW Have you read "War of the Ancients" by Richard A Knaak? If you haven't read it yet and you don't mind reading another Warcraft book, I highly suggest it!

 

[ThatLankyBastard]

A prequel to Death Troopers?!?!?! The greatest Star Wars book I have ever read... I must buy this now! Going to Chapters tomorrow...

On topic, currently it is Let Me In, it's great.

Don't worry, you won't be disappointed with it...

Is that the sequel to Death Troopers? I haven't gotten my hands on that one yet...

OT: Re-reading the Once and Future King for the first time since HS. Great book, I recommend reading it if only to see T.H. White's take on Merlin.

It's actually a prequel!

The Once and Future King? I think one of my friends has that one... I'm gonna have to pick that up today!

metro 2033 is the last thing i read, now im starting to read crime and punishment by Dostoevsky. Shits hard to get in to.

What was your opinion on Metro 2033? I finished it a bit ago and I'm not sure if I love it or hate it...

"Catching Fire", the second book in the Hunger Games trilogy. I was completely absorbed by the first one, and nicked the second and third ones from a friend I'm in a show with.

I was suggested The Hinger Games awhile ago, but I never got around to reading it because I thought it would be... well... kiddy... I might have to give it a try now!

 

[LightningBanks]

Destiny quest book 1, It be one of dem game books, yaarr

 

[ThatLankyBastard]

Lolita.

Damn, just damn.

That is a book that everyone has to read, even if you find it a struggle about 3/4s of the way through. Absolutly fantastic.

You've peaked my interest, I'm gonna look this one up now...

...might I ask what it's about?

...or is it pretty obvious from the title...

On a recent trip to USA , I buyed almost all the Halo books. I red First Strike and now Im reading Contact Harvest. If you are a fan of Halo , they are pretty good.

All the Halo books are great, personal favorites are "The Flood" and "Evolutions"

I'm...still not done with the last book of Douglas Adams' hitchhiker trilogy. D:

Finish it... 'Tis amazing, probably in my Top 10...

 

[RowdyRodimus]

Re-reading The Death of WCW by RD Reynolds (of Wrestlecrap.com fame) and Bryan Alvarez (F4Wonline.com)for research on a book I'm writing.

KISS Kompendium (a collection of all the KISS comic books from the 70's-00's) I found a signed copy by Gene, Paul, Ace and Peter at Hastings used for $10
