Probably going to reread Ender's Game - Orson Scott Card since Jack brought it up the other day and it has been a while.

BTW Doc, stick with those Dark Tower books. The first one isn't easy to get into at first. If you like King, however, you will love that series.

Trying to get into a collection of H.P. Lovecraft shorts (including "Call of the Chtulu").

H.P. Lovecraft was fun but I think I lost them in a move a while back. "At the Mountain of Madness" was one of my favorites.

As for the books I read, they are all on PCs. Currently I'm engulfed in a TACL programming book. Quit simple and reminds of BASIC.

read martian chronicles, bradbury
read robinson crusoe, defoe
that third book is a piece of sh*t in my opinion.
and in response to wondergod: it's an at-work thing. lifeguarding at a pool that is without patrons for most of the day allows for literature to creep in to my routine. the only reason i havent devoured half the library by now is that i get internet by siphoning wireless from surrounding apartments.
