Robots and Empire by isaac Asimov

The Maltese Falcon by Dashiell Hammett.

The Prince by Niccolo Machiavelli, and I have to say, I'm enjoying more than I thought I would. Maybe I'm just a tad messed up in the head, but I think his brutally effective guidelines on how to secure and maintain power as an autocratic dictator is stupendously interesting. If you don't know much about the book, imagine it as Ruling a Kingdom: For Dummies

It's a simple book on the grammar of Asturian, a minority language of Spain.

The Year of The Griffin

Deep Secret

[both by Diana Wynne Jones]

I'm listening to this as an audio book and I appreciate that it's read by the author. I'll admit it can be confusing, but it's also kind of fascinating to read about someone so brilliant.

Citizen Soldiers: The U.S. Army from the Normandy Beaches to the Bulge to the Surrender of Germany, June 7, 1944 - May 7, 1945 by Stephen B. Ambrose.

This is good if you're into witches/fantasy.

The Enchanted Forest Chronicles.

Alternating with Jurassic Park.



I like to go back and forth between fiction and nonfiction.

The Magician's Daughter {A Valentine Hill Mystery}

Years Best Extreme Horror. Vol. I.

Anthology of short horror fiction where the authors aren't afraid to go the distance with disturbing imagery and situations. So far, pretty decent short stories.
