    Currently "A fire upon the deep" not so sure about this one, I liked the opening of "Forever war" much better. The last book I read comes with much higher reccomendations. i'm sure most of you have read it but "The Postman" is well worth a read. The idea of "survivalists" causing so much trouble is interesting as I'm sure there are quite a few among us.

    I'm reading a German translation of Salem's Lot (translated to Brennen Muss Salem, which is 'Salem Must Burn') to improve my mediocre German. It's a lot of fun.

    Definitely. It's one of his best. I believe it's held as one of his 'classics'.

    I recently picked up Oliver twist because its free on kindle and I'm partial to a bit of Dickens every so often. It is a pretty good read and most definitely better than the movie.
