    I’ll try the Stephen King one – I did like his short stories when I was growing up, but thought most of his stuff is still a bit, well, adolescent

    Thanks BK, I would agree. In particular his later nonsense. Never the less, The Stand is worth a read but be prepared to spend a few hours. Not a bad mini series as well.

    I prefer real life reads. .

    Sailing alone around the world -Joshua Slocum. It’s more of a dairy than a book but I found myself time again shaking my head on what this guy did and where/when he did it.

    could easily sit and read this book, or one of shapelle corbys novels

    A honourable mention for A Shadow Falls: In the Heart of Java by Andrew Beatty, which I’ve just finished and enjoyed greatly, I’m sure some of you will be familiar with it.

    I’ve read “My War Gone By, I Miss It So”, one of the most chilling things I’ve ever read: a twin diary of an addiction to heroin and war. He actually first ‘chased the dragon’ in Indonesia of all places.

    Yeah, that’s a good one, isn’t it? A lot of good writing came about of the Bosnian war.

    My recommendation: everyone should read Roosa’s recently banned book on G30S/PKI.
