Dear Wife got me a Kindle Fire for Christmas, so I've been doing more reading than usual. Finished re-reading The Forever War by Joe Haldeman and will be starting re-reading The Penultimate Truth by Phillip K. Dick.

[sharkman]

I just pre-ordered David Icke's latest book "Remember Who You Are"

[gringott]

It's a long story, but my dentist has caused me to start re-reading Starship Troopers, and my son is also re-reading it - a couple thousand miles away.

[phideaux]

Fingerprints of the Gods by Graham Hancock.......

Great book. Hancock is brilliant, one of my favorites.

[TomD]

I've gone through a couple of books a week for most of my life, sometime fiction and sometimes not. Read something way off my beaten path recently but pretty cool, "Sandman", a graphic novel series by Neil Gaiman.

[TimoneX]

Love Sandman/Hellblazer/Constantine. Great books.

[banjo]

I'm reading Adventure Capitalist by Jim Rogers.

[PhucilliJerry]

The Beekeeper's Handbook


My bees should be ready in the next 2 weeks.

[Malus]

Great book. Hancock is brilliant, one of my favorites.

Yay. Between Hancock, Sitchen, Wilcock and a score of others, I'm starting to wonder more about our place in the universe and where its all headed, then worry about the petty antics of these lowlife bankers. Something is being hidden from us..........

Before we can know where we are headed, we need to know where we came from.

Conventional ancient history is pure political BS.

This book blew me away. If you look up "meticulous researcher" in the dictionary, there is a photo of Robert Temple



The Sirius Mystery: New Scientific Evidence of Alien Contact 5,000 Years Ago

[Alex Lemas]

Ten Lost Years 1929-1939. Barry Broadfoot. Lots of stories of how people survived the depression in Canada. The author interviewed people on how it is when there is no money. How they did it, what tricks and knowledge they had to use every day just to EAT.
Good read, lots of individual stories, fascinating read on how clever people become when they are down to nothing.

[TimoneX]

That ancient alien astronaut stuff is fascinating, in part because a whole lot of it makes perfect sense. Reading through the Mahabharata and or Ramayana is enough to make one question the "official" history of mankind and it's only one tiny piece of evidence to support these theories. Great reading if you don't mind having your mind blown.

Just finished Skeletons on the Zahara, which I really enjoyed. It's about some shipwreck survivors that are sold into slavery when they wash up on the north coast of Africa. It's a non-fiction book, but reads like a fiction story, very gripping.

American Gunfight: The Plot to Kill President Truman--and the Shoot-out That Stopped It

American Gunfight is the fast-paced, definitive, and breathtakingly suspenseful account of an extraordinary historical event -- the attempted assassination of President Harry Truman in 1950 by two Puerto Rican Nationalists and the bloody shoot-out in the streets of Washington, D.C., that saved the president's life.

[dozer99]

The Wife just bought me the 50th Anniversary edition of "The Fountainhead and Atlas Shrugged". Going to reread both, but one at a time. Just finished, The California Trail: An Epic With Many Heroes by George Rippey Stewart. Great book.

[Ragnarok]

I'd like to say I'm reading this one, but not for the same reasons:

[gnome]

This **** is brilliant.

[SNICKLE 1980]

The Blue Equinox (vol 3 no 1) and Gems from the Equinox.

[Argentium]

A Nuclear Family Vacation; various short stories about nuclear tourism, great stuf, highly recommend!

[CiscoKid]

"Sacre Bleu" by Christopher Moore. It's just fiction, but it is very imaginative fiction. It starts with the murder of Vincent Van Gogh and involves most of the famous impressionists of the late 19th century. You don't have to be an art lover to appreciate this fast paced book.

[Oldmansmith]

Just finished reading "One second after" about a terrorist EMP (stock up on food and ammo please!) and "Practicing Medicine without a License" about the Linus Pauling Vitamin C/Lysine cure for heart disease (forget what your cholesterol level is and for God's sake throw the statin drugs away if you are stupid enough to be taking them).

Both highly recommended.

I some MAJOR shopping trips after reading "one second after". Making Mrs. smooth read it now. That is one book that needs to be passed on to loved ones

[Malus]

Non-fiction, "Inside the Priory of Scion" by Robert Howells. Just about half way through and am not really impressed. Trying to link Freemasons with Priory with Rosicrucians and the Jesus had a bloodline story all centering around the Templars and Rennes-le-Chateau. A lot of speculation from a "priory insider" and the writer. Maybe the second half will be better and shed some light on something. Granted, there were some interesting things I didn't know, but, most is rehash if you've done any prior reading on the subject.

Fiction, "Dust" by Charles Pellegrino. Good fiction about end of the world. Biology changes and bugs disappearing and others morphing to adapt. Various science groups trying to figure out "why". The story delves into the earth resetting itself like in some grand universal precession. The cycle of the planet and it just happens to be when we're inhabiting the world. Really intense fiction. It was written in 1998. Granted I don't know how it ends yet and what conclusion they eventually arrive at if any (only 3/4 of the way through). Good read so far.

Gold Beneath the Waves: Treasure Hunting the Surf and Sand by Jim F. Brouwer

For the 3rd time, something new makes sense and clicks every time I read it.

Both highly recommended.

I really hope One Second After has been updated - I read that book right after it came out and it was the most painful read ever. "Could of", "Should of", "Would of" instead of "have" ... plus many other editing issues.

I recommended it to my brother with the stipulation he wait a year to read it - I didn't hear any complaints, so I'm assuming it was re-edited.

Fiction: Stephen Erikson's Malazan Book of the Fallen Decalogy, Tokien's The Hobbit, S.M. Stirling's Emberverse Series ... a few others
Non-Fiction: Griffin's Creature from Jekyll Island (for the second time), Ron Paul's End the Fed

I just finished reading this a few months ago and dont remember this issue. It is possible I could of been distracted by the important message the book sends. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND THIS BOOK!!!

Considering the error was in almost every single paragraph, trust me, you would have noticed, no matter how important the subject matter. Now that I think about it, it might have been a free advance copy my wife picked up at one of her conferences...that would explain the egregious editing problems.

[sharkman]

I finished reading Neil Kramer's - "The Unfoldment". I truly enjoyed it and somewhat changed the way I think about things. Its well worth a read.

I am about 70% of the way thru Christopher Knowles - "Our God Wear Spandex". This is a really interesting book which ties in comic book heroes to archetypes of the past.

Other books on my list to read in the future are books by Joseph P Farrell and Phillip K Dick, starting with VALIS.

Would enjoy hearing comments if anyone has read any of the above.

Got this yesterday and starting today I hope - Forgotten Civilization The Role of Solar Outbursts in our Past and Future.

Chris Hedges: The World As It Is, Dispatches on the Myth of Human Progress

[Merkin]

FWIW, I'm reading George Orwell's "1984," then will be re-reading "Animal Farm." He had many other titles that are well worth reading, but I'm going back to basics here. Orwell was well ahead of his time, both in intelligence and predictions...its surreal how much of his writings (1984 in particular) have come to fruition today. He didn't prognosticate everything, but it's very eery how much he was on target decades before it actually happened.

What should I be reading next?

I am currently reading "The 12th IMAM" by Joel C. Rosenberg. At least as good as "One Second After", both are powerful.
