[QUOTE="Desdichado, post: 1057218, member: 2205"] If you're like me, it's hard to find something you really want to read when you have fairly limited time to do so. Some pointers on your taste might be helpful. I'd second (or is it third or fourth by now?) [i]Perdido Street Station[/i] -- I didn't realize it was out in normal sized paperback now. That means I'll go buy my copy right away; I read a library copy. I'd also second fusangite's recommendation to pick up some non-fiction if that's your thing. Some of my favorites, although I don't remember the authors have been biographies of John Paul Jones and Julius Caesar. Also, J.P. Mallory and Victor Mair wrote an enthralling book about the Tarim Basin mummies, if you like that kind of thing. Right at the moment, I'm rereading certain sections of [i]Morgoth's Ring[/i] and [i]Unfinished Tales[/i] as well as the [i]Midnight[/i] campaign setting, the Warmachine rulebook and (hopefully I'll be able to get my hands on it today) [i]Sorcery & Steam[/i] by FFG. I've also been thinking about getting into [i]Neuromancer[/i] again; I can get it on audio book from my public library. Same for Kim Stanley Robinson's [i]Red Mars[/i] -- I really need to finish that, especially since the library ordered audio books of [i]Blue Mars[/i] and [i]Green Mars[/i] just for me! [/QUOTE]
