The Book Thread: What are you reading?

[Punch]

I couldn't find a book thread so let's start one! 

I'm reading Icon by Frederick Forsyth right now, I'm at the beginning of chapter 4. I like Forsyth's books because they're pretty well researched most of the time, and the stories written on top of the real facts are really convincing. Not to mention they're all quality thrillers. I've read before Avenger, The Negotiator and a book with short stories which I forgot the name right now.

Currently reading - A Difficulty with Dwarves.  http://www.amazon.com/Difficulty-Dwarves-Craig-Shaw-Gardner/dp/0441147798

Enjoying what I've gotten through so far (50 ish pages in) reminds me of a slightly tamer Xanth novel much in the light of a Robert Aspirin 'Myth' book.

"If Monty Python wrote books"

[Necromancer]

I'm between books right now, but the last one I read was Joyland by Stephen King.

Ha, I just started re-reading the Myth books.  I'm about 4 chapters into the first one, "Another Fine Myth." I'm also just about finished with Robert Heinlein's "I Will Fear No Evil." It not one of my favorites of his, but it's an interesting read.

I'm about half way through Frank Herbert's Godmakers right now.

Most of my reading time is while I'm eating.  No cheeto crumbs on my controllers, dammit!

I'm on chapter eight and I'm having a blast with Icon. Too bad I don't have much free time to read it.

I just bought Big Damn Sin City because I only read 3 of the 7 books before now (maybe 4...) and it seemed like a good deal for a 1,500 page hardcover book.  The thing is massive and almost hard to read because it is so big, but it is also high quality binding and pages.  I am almost done with the first book which is a classic I have read before, but I am really looking forward to getting into stuff I never read.

Just finished Rise and Fall of Sega, and moving on to Ray Kurzweil's The Age of Spiritual Machines. Also looking to read American Gods at some point.
