    Fleming, Benson, O&#39;brien, Mitnik, that&#39;s just what&#39;s sitting on my bookshelf right now.
    They say I need to be more in touch with my feminine side, to tell you the truth if I had a feminine side I&#39;d be touching it all the time

    I&#39;m also going to have to say that Fear and Loathing in Los Vegas is excellent!
    The best part about having friends isn&#39;t in knowing that they have your back but rather in knowing that you have theirs.

    I don`t get the chance to read as much at the moment, but I have managed to read a couple Neil Stephenson books. Snowcrash and Zodiac were both pretty good. Also interesting that the author has not chosen to specialise in a particular genre. Zodiac is a bit of mystery/thriller while Snowcrash is definitely Science Fiction.

    I also read the Jim Chee mysteries a while ago. I can not remember the author at the moment though. Also pretty good, as mysteries go.
    Ayuh, not dead yet. Might change that with an S1000RR though

    Pratchett, (he did a good one with Gaiman called Good Omens),
    Anne McCaffrey (the Dragons of Pern series, the freedom series and killashandra),
    Raymond E. Feist (riftwar saga, Serpentwar saga---Magician is the best book i have ever read),
    Ian Fleming (the books are better than the films, except maybe he early films with connery, which are massive)
    LOTR...nuff siad
    Dean Koontz - One door away from heaven

    There are so many briliant books that you will love reading... so I advise anything. Just go to www.amazon.com and browse through the books sections looking at customer reviews, etc.
