Since we all seem to kind of be of the same mindset here... fans of science fiction, video game addicts and computer geeks... I was wondering what everyone is reading, or would recommend? I am always on the lookout for new stuff. My favorite is post-apocalyptic or cyber punk type stuff, but I like all kinds.
I am currently reading Maskerade which is a Terry Pratchett Discworld book. My other favorite authors are:
Roger Zelazny
Andre Norton
Steven Brust
Arthur C. Clarke
Margaret Wiess and Tracy Hickman
Phillip K Dick
and a bunch of others.
What would anyone point me towards?

...I read Harry Potter. >>
Mostly Japanese comic books in either English or Japanese. XP
Sometimes, I'll read Nora Roberts books.
Other times, I'll usually read mysteries/thrillers from Dean Kootz(sp?), Douglas Preston & Lincolin Child, Robin Cook, etc...
I'm a bookworm! XP If there's a book that my mom and my sister likes, they'll hand it to me and I just zip through the books.

I read the first four Dune books and loved them. I started the fifth and just couldn't quite keep focus on it. I may revisit them in time. How's the newer books?

Myself. I read some of the Star trek novels that do come out from time to time over her. And I do have the three seasons of the original Star trek on paperback as story wise from there. I haven't read that many novels laltely to actually catch up here. A little bit of star wars. Comic book wise I haven't bought any in a number of years. I used to collect a lof of the fantastic four and the thing from Marvel comics over here.

To compute or not to compute that is the question at hand. Tis nobler to compile in C++ or in TASM.

The fifth is a tough read, convoluted. The Brian Herbert books don't come close to his dad's, but I read them for nostalgic value.abortion pills online http://www.kvicksundscupen.se/template/default.aspx?abortion-questions cytotec abortion
