    From the thread in Literature
    The Book Of The New Sun Book 1 + 2 + 3, East Of Eden, The Tunnels Of Cu Chi, The Father Brown Stories, Something Wicked This Way Comes, Candide, The Brothers Karamazov, A Happy Death, The Picture of Dorian Grey, Less Than Zero, Game Theory & Strategy, Anthropologist on Mars, The Once & Future King

    Havent finished anything noteworthy in a while except for the TH White one which is a really great fantasy book (mostly just based on arthurian legend, but its quite witty too). Atm im on a book with a bunch of short stories from JG Ballard some of which are a bit obtuse to put it nicely.

    Finished the JG Ballard stories, made for decent reading in the end. Picked up Richard Dawkin's The God Delusion and read about 150 pages and then just left it, found it tiresome reading tbh. Ive now started Peter Hamilton's The Reality Disfunction and really like it (only read about 50 pages of it, another 1200 to go!)

    Excellent sci-fi! If you like the Reality Dysfunction (book 1 of 3 in the Nights Dawn Trilogy), you will also love books 2 & 3:

    2) The Neutronium Alchemist
    3) The Naked God (one of my favourites).

    He has also released a new space opera in 2 books, based in a different world but similar style:

    1) Pandora's Star
    2) Judas Unchained

    Good stuff.
