Looking for a good book

[Jaged]

I don't really ever read books and I have a short attention span with books I do read. I am looking for a really good fiction novel of some sort. If it doesnt grab me in the first few chapters I will never finish it, that's just how I am. Futuristic and present time settings are generally better then swords and sorcery fantasy books.


Any suggestions?

Anything by Dan Brown is great. Angels and Demons, Da Vinci Code, Deception point are all great, present day books.

[Giovanni]

Any illustrated novel by Frank Miller! :lol:

Have you read Sun tzu's art of war?

[Biohazzard56]

I just finished Beyond Band of Brothers, which was great. Its the personal memoirs of Dick Winters.

Enders Game

Enders Game

just about to suggest that. This is one of the only books i've ever loved. It is just so good.

[LimpBIT]

enders game is good, very odd though.

[Rbstr]

all the enders saga books are good for a read.

[Ivan]

Can anyone give a quick description of Enders Game books?

I'm actually looking for a good book too. I'm reading A Scanner Darkly which is good, but I need something else. Preferably present-day setting, something compelling, not necessarily war.

I suggest Robert A. Heinlein's "Stranger in a strange land"

Read Tom Clancy. I fing love Sum of All Fears

Bleachers by Grisham

Tangerine by Edward Bloor

Terry Goodkind Sword of Truth series. Start off with Wizards First Rule. It'll grab you and take you for a ride you won't forget.

Any Michael Moorcock books (Elric, Count Brass, Hawkmoon, Eternal Champion). I especially liked the Hawkmoon books.

Moorcock

Hehe.

Yeah, especially funny if you read my post in the Penis thread.

But seriously. He's a good author.
