So... what are you reading right now?

[R2-X2]

I'm readin Tolkien's The Lord of the Rings right now.

[Totenkopf]

Shadow Warriors

[Arcesious]

I'm currently reading all the in-game books of Morrowind. Short, but some of them are actually pretty good.

[knight 12167]

Last night a finished a epically deppressing book called "The Boy In Striped Pyjamas"

[sersarsor]

Just finished reading Darth Bane: Rule of two, the third book is coming out sometime in December I think.

Ha, depressing title too.

[mattig89ch]

I just finished reading angels and demons, very good book btw.

[Darth Avlectus]

Reading through the SW:ROTS novel by Matthew Woodring Stover. Re-reading actually to get all the little differences from the movie.

[Samuel Dravis]

Finished The Brothers Karamazov and am working on The Sickness Unto Death by Kierkegaard. My particular favorite characters in The Brothers K were Alyosha, Father Zossima and the boy Illusha, although I identified more with Dmitri and particularly Ivan. Dostoyevski is definitely one of my favorite authors.

[Darth333]

Currently reading "La sombra del viento" (The Shadow of the wind) by Carlos Ruiz Zafón. I quite enjoy it. I'm reading it in Spanish but my boss says the English translation is well done.

[Alkonium]

Still reading The Legend of Drizzt by R.A. Salvatore. I'm currently on Book X: Passage to Dawn.

Yet another WW2/holocaust movie ruined by American actors. If people are in Germany, they should speak German, not English with American accents or in Valkyries case, English accents. Please tell me the book is better/more bearable(aside from being about genocide)

[Serpentine Cougar]

Been reading some of the Laxdaela Saga; it's kinda hard to keep track of all the people in it, some of whom even have the exact same name!

Also, still loving Wheel of Time (still on book 6)!

[Darth Avlectus]

I occasionally check up on my swordsman skills with "The Heart of Kendo" By Darrel Max Craig, also read up on Renaissance (NOT Olympic) fencing here and there. Good stuff.

[Rabish Bini]

"Rabish Bini doesn't read books, he stares them down until he gets the information he wants"

Seriously though, I'm re-reading Joe Vitale's Lifes Missing Instruction Manual. A must have with some pretty interesting and useful things in it.

[Sabretooth]

Finished with Neuromancer and disappointed by the read, not in the book, but I just find William Gibson a difficult writer.

Heading over to Haruki Murakami's Kafka on the Shore because I miss Murakami so much. I can't remember the last time I've been addicted to a writer's style so much.

[SW01]

Finally finished Master & Commander after being distracted by exam revision. I must say, I'm glad to have read it, for it was very engaging and, indeed, enjoyable to read. Also stormed through Mr. Midshipman Hornblower, which seemed a lot simpler after rather more technical Master & Commander. Still good, though.

I'm now about a third of the way through Lieutenant Hornblower. I've still got Hornblower and the Hotspur left to read after that, then perhaps I can consider buying more!

Thanks to all who recommended them!

[Samuel Dravis]

I finished an anthology of vampire stories over the weekend and I've started work on Camus' The Fall, which seems promising.

Ever read any of Neal Stephenson's works, particularly Snow Crash?

Think of Deus Ex, but with MMOs, psychoactive drugs via the Internet, and a katana and minigun-wielding pizza deliveryman as a protagonist.

[Rogue Nine]

You forgot YT and her dentata. ;x

[Sith'ari Darth Bane]

Well I was reading Terry Pratchett's Discworld: The Colour of Magic and The Light Fantastic, didn't have the time to finish it before returning it to the library.

[Sabretooth]

Yes, I've heard of this man and book a lot on the Deus Ex 3 forums. I was curious about it at first, but I have to read anything that involves katana and pizza in the same sentence.

[Serpentine Cougar]

Been reading Dan Simmons' Hyperion - it has an interesting story structure, with several different stories embedded in a larger one. I also like the idea of "time-debts" incurred by traveling through space.

[The Betrayer]

I'm reading the Prince by Niccolo Machiavelli.

[Mandalore The Shadow]

I am re-reading the Republic Commando books because the new one is coming out soon

[Alkonium]

I'm reading Forgotten Realms: The Last Mythal Book I: Forsaken House by Richard Baker, and after that, I'll be reading Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance.

[Sith'ari Darth Bane]

I'm reading Darth Bane: Rule of Two, still haven't read the whole thing.

[Ping]

I've been reading some Sherlock Holmes stories. They're actually quite entertaining. Decided to read the stories after playing several Sherlock Holmes video games.

[Meowster]

I've been reading Les Miserables by Victor Hugo, unfortunately in English.

[Darth InSidious]

N.K. Sanders' translation of Gilgamesh. I've reached Utnapishtim's account. The epic repetition is wearing a little thin but at least it gets to the point, unlike the classical epics and their pages and pages of circumlocution as when a fly reaches the window, and, bashing into it, recoils dizzily and turns again, circling the room for another way out, or a moth, drawn to the lightbulb, falls and, cont, p.1094

[Kado Sunrider]

Sun Tzu's Art of War and Economics for Dummies. Quite possibly the most unlikely pairing of books you'll ever see.

[Totenkopf]

Star Fist: Wings of Hell
Catastrophe

[Darth Avlectus]

SW: The force unleashed novel.

[Litofsky]

Currently reading Union: 1812, an interesting novel about the state of America from its rocky beginnings through what the author calls 'The Second War of Independence.'

Aeneid V? My particular favourite is when Virgil parallels Aeneas to the speck of dust atop Olypus' height; "pater Aeneas" and so forth.

I'm reading Chaucer's "Troilus and Criseyde" at the moment, myself.

[HdVaderII]

As of now, I'm reading Winston Churchill's series of memoirs on World War II. Incredibly interesting.

[Endorenna]

Recently got a bunch of Star Wars books. Just finished Shadows of the Empire and the first two books of the Han Solo trilogy. Soon, onto the post-RotJ books, I suppose.

And the first two Darth Bane books, if I can get my hands on them.

And The Phantom of the Opera. Saw a pretty good movie version of it recently, and I haven't read the book since I was ten...so I figured I might as well reread it.

After I'm done with the Star Wars books.

[Astor]

Still reading Marlborough: Britain's Greatest Soldier by Richard Holmes. I really need to read it a little more - I haven't even got to his joining the army yet!

[ForeverNight]

@Tot: I love the Star Fist books when I can get my hands on them!

In fact, I'm reading Star Fist: Technokill right now. Along with whatever I happen to find. Just finished reading David Weber's "By Heresies Distressed", the series (which began with "Off Armaggedon Reef") is arguably one of the top 10 Science Fiction stories I've ever read.

[Drunkside]

Bleh school books

[Ctrl Alt Del]

Finished The Boy in Stripped Pajamas. So insanely better than the movie.
