Band of Brothers by Stephen Ambrose
Charlie and the Chocolate Factory by Roald Dahl  Wink
Aliens Among Us edited by Jack Dann & Gardner Dozois
The Illustrated Sherlock Holmes Treasury by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle
The Number of the Beast by Robert A. Heinlein
Battlefield Earth by L. Ron Hubbard
Martin the Warrior by Brian Jacques
The Gospel According to John
and Cloud of Sparrows by Takashi Matsuoka,

all of which are outstandingly good with the possible exception of Aliens Among Us--a collection of classic sci-fi short stories that range from gripping (e.g. "The Other Celia" by Theodore Sturgeon) to downright sleep-inducing(e.g. "Among the Hairy Earthmen" by R.A. Lafferty). Also, The Number of the Beast gets a little raunchy now and then, but it's nothing too bad so far.

I just started reading (rereading) Tom Clancy, Teeth of the Tiger.
It is a well written book about Jack Ryan Jr., for a change.

I am reading "Love on the Dole" by Walter Greenwood.  It is a bird's eye view of life in the '30's.  If you think you are badly off now, read this and think you are a king.  LOL

I am reading To Kill a Mockingbird which is about life in the 30s from the vantage point of a grade school girl in the deep south (Alabama).

I'm also reading 2 Chronicles, Psalms and Proverbs.

Just got done reading The Last Days by Joel Rosenberg.  I'm currently reading Assualt At Selonia by Roger M. Allen, book 2 of the Corellian Trilogy.  Yup!  I'm a Star Wars geek!   Grin  I'm waiting rather impatiently for The Lone Drow by R.A. Salvatore to go to paperback.  Might I add, that Salvatore is the preeminite fantasy author out there today?  Yupyup.

As for my Bible reading...I just started reading through the Bible, with a particular look at salvific grace throughout the Book.  I've really enjoyed it so far!  That and I'm only through Genesis 3.

I am reading Holy Blood holy grail. it's very detail orientened and reasearch oriented, not a character book, like the Davinchi Code, but what that book used for it's facts. it's a good modern mystery though. I also just finished reading Al Franken's book "lies and the lying liers who tell them."  Very Funny, Witty, and factual. Everyone should read it before this coming election. It'll give you a better perspective than what the mainstream media is going to give you, especially on this current administration.

Hello!

I don't know if you all are into ebooks, but I found one at Lulu.com called The Silver Cord:Cimmerian Dawn that was a good read.  I
read it in one day, and felt a strong sense of understanding after reading it.  It is Christian fiction but I found it under regular fiction thrillers.  I paid $15.00 for the ebook.  It that about right for an ebook?
