Archaeo Posted November 18, 2002 I recommend all humans or sub-humans with a vivid imagination to read the Dark Tower series by Stephen king. There are four books out (the gunslinger, the drawing of the three, the wastelands, and wizards and glass.) and one short story (sisters of eluria in the collection of short stories called Everything’s Eventual.) and there are three more books on the way. The Dark Tower series are not horror stories. P.S. DO NOT BE AFRAID TO READ THESE BOOKS. 0 Share this post Link to post
Submerge Posted November 18, 2002 I read a lot of everything. Piers Anthony's Xanth Series Spider Robinson's Callahan Series Robert Asprin's Myth Inc. Series Robert Jordan's Wheel of Time Series (If you've never heard of it's greatness I ORDER YOU TO GO READ IT! Book one: The Eye of the World. find it.) Janet Evanovich's Stephanie Plum Series David Edding's Elenium, Belgariad, and others. Douglas Adam's Hitchhiker's series Spider Man Comics (Spider Girl as well) P.S. For vampire buffs: Go for the Anita Blake: Vampire Hunter Series by Laurell K. Hamilton. Full of Sex, Violence, Mystery and Lots of the Occult and such. 0 Share this post Link to post

DooMer 4ever Posted November 18, 2002 I mainly read Scifi books and novels and some horror novels. Michael Chrichton is one of my favourite writers ever. 0 Share this post Link to post

Gotta love Frank Herbert huh? Books -Awesome Movie(old) -Equally awesome Movie(new) -Felt more like a love story than the Sci-fi it was supposed to be. 0 Share this post Link to post
Fletcher` Posted November 18, 2002 My gawd! How could I forget Orson Scott Card? Author of The Abyss (book), Xenocide, and Wyrms. And Harlan Ellison, what with those horror stories of his. Teh werewolves r the wicked ones! 0 Share this post Link to post
Lizardcommando Posted November 19, 2002 Does the book Maus count? If so, then that's the only book I've enjoyed reading. 0 Share this post Link to post

NiGHTMARE Posted November 20, 2002 ravage said:Maybe a bit of Prattchet too (Mort, The Wyird Sisters) I think I've read just about anything Pratchett's ever written, with the exception of some of his Discworld spin-off collaborations with other people. The only other authors I'm a particular fan of are Timothy Zahn (his Starwars books own almost anything else Starwars releated, especially episode 1) and R.A. Salvatore (the Drizzt Do'Urden books are essential for any fantay fan, even if they don't particularly like D&D). If you're including comics, I read 2000AD, Judge Dredd and Preacher (I know it's finished now, but I read the graphic novels, and there are a few of those that are yet to be published in the UK).
