    Pushers Out: The inside story of Dublin's anti-drugs movement by Andre Lyder.

    The memoirs of someone centrally involved in the anti-drugs campaigns. Engrossing read.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 12,135 ✭✭✭✭John


    Tolkien - The Shaping Of Middle Earth


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,746 ✭✭✭pork99


    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.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 185 ✭✭Feenikusu


    Island of Exiles by Ingrid J. Parker...although I think Rashomon Gate was much better.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,335 ✭✭✭rugbug86


    adrian mole and the weapons of mass destruction
    scholts original miscelanity (i know, sp!)
    vernon god little


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 534 ✭✭✭Doper Than U

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