Just finished The player by Fjodor Dostojevski, didn't like it much. And just started the second part of Lyonesse by Jack Vance. You can't go wrong with Jack Vance!!

Sir, you are mistaken. The Sword of Truth is the best series ever.

I'm reading Heart of darkness by Joseph Conrad, i love this book. Apocalypse now was adapted on this book, even if the place, the period etc are not the same. But there is the same dark spirit, in the same syle than the Cormac Macarthy writing.

Someone know Robert Charles Wilson ? He's actually the best SF living writer for me.

Fantastic book. My favourite of Murakami's.

Currently reading The Thousand Autumns Of Jacob de Zoet by David Mitchell and The Periodic Table by Primo Levi.

House of Leaves is a fantastic book
mind-fuckingly confusing and incredibly gripping in equal measure!

Don't read much, but the last book I read was The power of now by Eckhart Tolle. It's really good, and how people should be. I highly recommend this to everybody.
