Fiction: just finished The Great Train Robbery by Michael Crichton. an old book but im a big fan of his.
Non Fiction: Wild at Heart - John Eldredge

Dune the 5th book by frank herbert... oh and Software Project management

Nothing I have never read a book

Except my MCSE etc. stuff

Google Hacking for Penetration Testers - Syngress Press

Reading Vault9

I'm busy finishing off Paradise Lost by John Milton.

Before that I read a book called The Millenium Problems. It was an interesting read, nothing spectacular though.

Just finished Angels and Demons by Dan Brown. It was a great read, I enjoyed it just as much as the Da Vinci Code.

EDIT: Oh yea and before that I read Harry Potter 6.

Not one for reading ,but like to read some swen hassel every now and then

I'm currently reading:

Tom Holt's Wish You Were Here <- comedy fiction
Tom Osenton's The Death Of Demand: Finding Growth In A Saturated Global Economy <- non-fiction
Aswath Damodaran's The Dark Side Of Valuation: Valuing Old Tech, New Tech, and New Economy Companies <- non-fiction

atlas shrugged (ayn rand) &
survivor (chuck palahniuk).

I have started Angels and Demons by Dan Brown, as well as The Colour of Magic by Terry Pratchet, but got disrupted by Harry Potter, which I have also started a second time.

Ill finish all 3 by the end of next week, and then I will start on The Science of Discworld II : The Globe, Terry Pratchet.

Ah Dan Brown. Read all of his books, most favorite was angels & Demons. It seems that Dan Brown is every londoners favorite author because there are at least 3 people reading his books in every tube carriage.

I have actually been put off his books now because of this.

Chronicles of narnia - C.S Lewis
The Unadulterated cat - Terry Pratchet

Extreme Programming Explained - Kent Beck
Object Thinking - David West

I'm waiting for my Science of the discworld 3, and fear and loathing in las vegas which should arrive next week

gvdwest: Is The Unadulterated cat part of the discworld series or something else?

No it is not part of the discworld series, it is a book about the campaign for real cats (can't decide if it is fiction or non-fiction) but it is quite good. My favourite non discworld book is good omens, do yourself a favour and give it a read (if you have not already)

Ill get there!
Im trying to collect all of his discworld books, Im sure Ill come accross it sooner or later.

Just finnished: Area 7 by Matthew Reilly

Now reading: The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy

what did you think of area 7? ive read 4 of his books. area 7 is not bad, pretty fast paced, the sequel, scarecrow, is even better, you can see his writing skills have advanced. i didnt enjoy his earlier books, they are over the top, far fetched and at times the writing seems childish. he can take things just too far though and it becomes absurd at sometimes. also he uses onomatopoeia a little too often.

His books would be perfect for Paul WS Anderson and Uwe Boll to make movies on.

Hitchhikers guide to the galaxy awesome book. his last book "The Salmon Of Doubt" is very good. its a collection of stories and articles written by the Author and also includes 7 chapters of an unfinished book he was working before he died.

Area 7 was a good read with a lot of fast paced action (maybe a little too much at times). The only other book I read of him was Temple which I quite enjoyed. Scarecrow is on my to-read list.

Just started on Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy and looking forward to reading the whole series.

The Heretic

Jason K. Chapman

Awesome and hectic book

Far too many technical reference books, I'm most likely going to need corrective lenses soon. As for fiction, I'm currently reading The Set-Up by Paul Erdman.

Reading - what a past time if your computer either crashes or irretates the hell out of you...

Currently I on Jack Higgens. Writes action thrillers (if one can call it that).
Makes for a very easy read.
In a nut shell... real life action and references, james bond can go to sleep, skop skiet en donnor... o ja, with the odd girl inbetween sometimes.

Waiting for the family to finish with Harry Potter, then I'll have a go at that.

ive just finished reading the dark elf trilogies and am busy with the icewindale trilogy now ... in the middle of streams of silver ... it are good for you

Erm, I just finished the new Jonathan Kellerman 'Rage'
And Im busy reading 'Thabo Mbeki and the fight for the soul of the ANC'

Yar before you start, it's more about history than politics...let the abuse start

I am just about to finish Daggerspell by Katherine Kerr. Really enjoyed it. Bring on Book 2 in the series...

Just finished Deja View by Andrea Burdick.

I just started on Pip by Freya North.

Totally feel so unintellectual around all you Dan Brown etc. peeps. Mine are just the simple classic love stories. Sigh.

i dont think its a good idea to stereotype the Dan Brown reader as an "intellectual type" considering every second person on the tube is reading one of his books.

besides his books are easy reads.

lol yea Dan Brown is a very easy read (I read Angels and Demons on my cellphone)

Just read Fool's Fate by Robin Hobb. Now theres a good book, but first you must read the Farseer Trilogy and the 2 other books in this trilogy as they come before.

Anyone read Herman Charles Bosman books(think thats how you spell it)

i've just started on night watch by terry pratchett
imagine i didnt start this book when i should really study for my exams :(

Reincarnation: The Hope of the World
by Irving Steiger Cooper

Great Book

Terry Goodkind - Naked empire

I see he has loads of books out, anyone else read his stuff?

Just started on the Richard Branson Autobiography... Hope it is a good read, and gives me some tips on making some moolah hehe

I'm buzy reading The Restaurant at the End of the Universe.

Hitchhiker's guide was very good

Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy

Just finished The First Casualty: The War Correspondent as Hero and Myth-Maker from the Crimea to Kosovo by Phillip Knightley.

Now on to Deadlines from the Edge: Images of War from Congo to Afghanistan by Hamilton Wende.

END!

Last book I read was Fight Club-the ending is so much better than the movie! I definitely like his style of writing. Now I'm looking for something new to read-any suggestions? I'd like something to give myself a break from my setwork at the mo

Lords of Chaos: The Bloody Rise of the Satanic Metal Underground

Reading the entire Dark Tower series by stephen king ...cleared the first 3 books and I think I'm going broke on the prices of these bastards.
Also starting to read: Capitalist Niger by some author who was on 702 ...very malcolm X apparently, then again probably just a carbon copy of the legend. Probably a book on how to teach your staff to earn more money for you by investing in short term stocks and then selling their kidneys.

Also re read my children books...I was moving house and there they were. There was a little animated book about things children shouldnt do like rock the chair, not eat correctly and lastly and this one warped me...suck on their thumbs because "dam dam dam" Some imp with a huge scissor would jump from out of nowhere and cut off the sucked limp...blood and gore in a childrens book. If I find it again I'll scan it and display it on the forum.

oooooh, the dark tower series, haven't read that in a while
