The Mind of Mr. Soames - old book

Foucault's Pendulum, Umberto Eco, fiction. If you like Dan Brown, you'll be blown away by this. It's just as much of a reglio-historical-conspiracy-mystery, but more complex, more compelling, and ultimately funnier and a better read. Really good stuff.

Revelation Space, Alastair Reynolds, science fiction. A good space opera, totally entertaining, lots of future tech but still good characters and plot, largely because it manages to talk about big concepts without losing focus on the individual people having to sort out the big concepts.

Confederacy of Dunces, John Kennedy Toole, fiction. You've probably already read this. If not, read it. Hilarious, tragic, each page is full of those "I can't believe *that* happened" and "I can't believe he did *that*" experiences.

The Mind of God, Paul Davies, nonfiction. I've read this book twice and still don't entirely understand it, and it's meant to be a laymans' introduction to the philosophical questions raised by quantum physics. Still, I enjoyed it both times and learned a fair amount. Well-written and accessible, even if it is sometimes incomprehensible.

Cheers

The Hobbit! :thumbsup

Damage Done (Warren Fellows)

Nobody will ever read that again. Those movies have killed it.

The Art of War

The movies have killed it? What planet do you come from? The movies completely domiated and I haven't heard one negative thing about any LOTR related movie/book from any logical person.. Try again..

Dan Brown's - Deception Point

That's a really good book, i loved The Alchemist from Paulo Coelho as well.

I love his books, especially his "11 minutes".

The Hunt for Zero Point by Neil Cook.

easy to read non-fiction, interesting topic
