    Just finished reading "The End of Oil: The Decline of the Petroleum Economy and the Rise of a New Energy Order" by Paul Roberts which was scary.

    Currently reading "Foucault's Pendulum" by Umberto Eco, which has been called the "thinking man's Da Vinci Code". It's a hearty satisfying read - one of those books you can wallow in.

    i agree, esp if the supremacy one is based on the film and not the otherway around.

    crap films

    ps, in easons in dundrum town centre, there is no a-z of fiction, only bestsellers, is this dumbing down. soon the only books you can buy will be the beckams' autobiography.

    theres a small a-z bit near the childrens books but blink and you'll miss it.
