Re: Books you read
Gone Tomorrow:Solid action novel, with a few twists.
Dragon on a Pedestal:Classic Xanth novel by the master of fantasy laced with humor, Piers Anthony.
Beach Road:A murder/law/detective book, the twist at the end leaves you thinking, What. The. Fuck? Simply epic. I read it in a few hours, I couldn't put it down. It's about 400ish pages.
Anvil of Stars: A truly thought-provoking Sci-fi novel, it touches on every emotion a human is capable of and more. The concepts of matter it goes into went over my head quite often, but the sheer amount of possibilities in the novel are amazing.
Those are the books I read in the past three weeks.
The Order Wars:Didn't get a chance to finish it, but I enjoyed the logic behind most of the magic in it, and its limitations. The characters were pretty down-to-earth.
Ride to Banshee Canon:Didn't get to finish this one either, but It's a decent western novel.
I started reading Quicksilver, but I couldn't get into it myself Johnny, perhaps I should have tried harder, how was it?

Re: Books you read
Quicksilver is awesome. That whole series is great (as is pretty much everything by Neal Stephensen).
His most recent one was one of the hardest to get into I felt, but it was worth it.
I've also read nearly everything by William Gibson, also a great author. Both are fiction but include lots of really interesting concepts that either are or could very soon be real.
