What book are you reading...

Laren Niven - Ringworld, Rinworld Engineers, Throne (I have forgotten the full name off of the top of me head, Ringworld's Children.

I just love the canon around the Known space books (Ringworld especially).

I am also about to start reading Padora's Star (Peter F Hamilton - part of the Commenwealth Saga) and Seeds of Earth (Michael Cobley - Part one of the Humanity's fire trilogy).

Additionally I also have all of the Halo books to go through again - I found them suprisingly enjoyable, especially liked Fall of Reach.
 
I've started, but I am struggling to get into, The Understudy by David Nicholls. I'm sure I'll finish it, but a little disappointed seeing as I enjoyed Starter for 10 so much
 
Just finished Dead Run by PJ Tracey. Absolute trash and not even fun trash. Have read a couple of others in the series and found them ok as trashy thrillers, but this one was devoid of a sensible plot, and character development or believability.
 
Aberystwyth Mon Amour - Malcolm Pryce

I don't read much too be honest (maybe 5 books a year). The editor bought this in and recommended it. Hope to finish it tonight.
 
Neverwhere - Neil Gaiman.

I read Smoke & Mirrors before this. It was completely twisted and weird and so far Neverwhere has not dissapointed.

Will be reading Mustaine: A Life in Metal, after this.
 
Bought A song of ice and fire series, a third of the way through the second book, but it's getting slow. To much describing and not enough action at the moment. I will persevere though.

On book two of Tawny Man ATM, after the Assassins and Live Ships. Much under-rated writer.

Very much so. I've read and enjoyed the Liveship Traders Trilogy and have now finished the Soldier Son Trilogy. Not got to Assassins or Tawny Man yet. They are on the list soon though :D
 
Just Finished:
- A Dance with Dragons
- Ghost Story by Jim Butcher
- The Dark Tower, The ending was ... frustrating. Started reading this in 2006, just finished this year.

Currently Reading:
- SuperFreakanomics
- Discworld Series, currenly on book 12/13
- Re-reading The Deathgate Cycle.
- Going to check out the OCUK book club
 
Star Wars: Heir to the Empire.

Great stuff. Slowly working my way through the EU novels in chronological order. Might be a while before I'm reading the latest series..there are to many :p.
 
I've got a few on the go:

1. Bret Easton Ellis - American Psycho

2. Aron Nimzowich - My System (chess related)

3. Carl Sagan - Cosmos
 
The reality dysfunction.

Read the commonwealth books already, so moving onto these. Only 10% of the way in, but it's pretty slow starting.
 
Last book i finished was Starship Titanic; pure comedy gold. Terry Jones inspired by Douglas Adams? How can you beat that? :p

Instead of finishing (or indeed starting) one of the various books i have lying around i'm thinking about getting Looking for Alaska by John Green, largely on the merits of his (and his brother's) vlog.
 
I am reading the "Age of Five" trilogy by Trudi Canavan, onto book 2 now very good read as well, though it isn't as good as "The Black Magician Trilogy" ..... yet.
 
Currently re-reading the Harry Potter books before I see the last two films on BD.

After that I have Temeraire by Naomi Novik waiting for me, and the first two three part series by R A Salvatore about Drizzt Do'Urden. Plenty of fantasy goodness :)
