What's the last good book yuh read??

[crazybalhead]

Recently read two books from the early 80's that oddly enough can be applicable today.

The Fifth Horseman by Larry Collins and Dominique Lapierre (sp?)
Chameleon by William Diehl

Damn good books IMHO.

I've kinda lost my zeal to read tho, still behind on the last Harry Potter - which inevitably kept me from going to the movie, and the latest dan brown - the lost symbol.

I'm currently rereading the half blood prince. Very easy light readding. JK know what she wasa doing to make a mass market appeal kinda series.

badman doh read

dun know

Is not you I see peddling books outside yuh trunk by the grocery outside Ho Lan Gardens???

One setta 13-15 year old gyul in sch....wait....nvmd.

[Notorious Scullman]

The last novels would be:

The Diamond Hunters - Wilbur Smith

before that...

Hungry as the Sea - Wilbur Smith

This man's incredible. Fantastic story,great twists, and lots of technical tidbits. By the time you've finished one of his books, you feel you can pilot the ship, or do exactly what the characters were doing. Very visual.

Since these, I've probably read about 75 books on photography

Wats the name of the really good book that was made into a movie, dealing with the search for the knights templar, holy grail and freemasons and lodge.
The ending was in the Louvre in France.

Tryin to memba the name of that book/movie?

The Da Vinci Code - Dan Brown

I couldn't find one to borrow or buy so I downloaded a .txt file and printed it and read it in 15hours
This was about 6 years ago

The Warlock was by Wilbur Smith, the man real graphic.

[axe]

Jus read The Road as well it was good...

but my favourite authors are David Morrel (First Blood, Brotherhood of the Rose, Fraternity of the Stone, League of Night and Fog, The Protector etc)

recommend "Testament" amazing book!

and Frederick Forsyth (Fist of God, The Negotiator, The Afghan, etc)

[crazybalhead]

Did he write flight of the intruder too axe??? Seem to remember that one, read it years ago.

[crazybalhead]

No that was Coontz, my mistake.

[Notorious Scullman]

Yup Stephen Coonts. Excellent writer, though he can get a tad boring at times.

ah yes good reading there!!
Clive Cussler is also decent

for me it would be The Lost Symbol by Dan Brown and The Kite Runner by Khaled Hosseini.

After reading the Lord of the rings trilogy, got the Silmarillion as a gift, never finished that either, Tolkien was clearly off his rocker when he was writing that one. Mushrooms or LSD or something.

that was one hard no arse book to read, after a couple pages i put it down.

[devrat]

Very much into Clive Cussler right now, just finished the "Skeleton Coast" and i am presently on "Plague Ship".
Dean Koontz has some good stuff but the stories lag.
I have a lot of Stephen King books including his short stories.
Robert Ludlum is a fantastic writer the "Bourne" series are a lot better in print although the movies were ok.

I think I have Mose Ascending somewhere about, got to check.

Is it just me or is it difficult to obtain books written by local authors easily, I searched some book stores and never found any Sam Selvon books.

[eliteauto]

very difficult to get local authors I'll have to check the Book Sauce on Tragarete Road and see, also want to get Phillip Rochford's book

[devrat]

Bought "blood lust" it is the true story of a serial killer, did not finish it though the book was written as on big police report....crap.

[Snags]

Last book I read was Rootkits: Subverting the Windows Kernel by Greg Hoglund and James Butler and I have File System: Forensic Analysis and God's Promise for you by Charles F Stanley up now.
