"Why do you have to quote others when you can quote yourself?" (Quote by me)
Is God willing to prevent evil, but not able? Then he is not omnipotent.
Is he able, but not willing? Then he is malevolent.
Is he both able and willing? Then whence cometh evil?
Is he neither able nor willing? Then why call him God.
You see things, and you say 'why'. But i dream things that never were and i say 'why not'.

Well, it's the lord of the rings series and Man at arms by Terry Pratchett. I just can't get enough of that mans weird humor.

Happy The Wheel of Time
Right now my favorite book series is The Wheel of Time by Robert Jordan. For those of you who like the Lord of the Rings, you should read this series.

I like reading a lot of classic science fiction, from the 40s to 60s. There is something about these older titles which the newer ones lack. It's also interesting to read the perception of authors back then and see if some of their theories are true. Authors like Doc Smith and Issac Asimov to name a couple who's books I enjoy. I also like books by Dennis Wheatley who writes many novels based around historical events that have a satanic cult twist to them. I'm sure no one here has heard of any of the authors I have mentioned. However I don't usually read books because they are by a particular author, but usually because of the genre and they sound interesting.

When it comes down to specific titles, I really haven't re-read many books (mainly because I have so many novels at home that I haven't read, you can pick up old titles very cheaply at sales and markets). The only ones that come to mind having re-read were two books one called the Silver Crown and the other called Rebecca which I read when I was a teenager and I really enjoyed them both.

This is gonna be a long list......
I love reading, I'm a book worm :P
I enjoy Tolkien's works, Terry Prattchet, Robert A.Heinlein, Ursula Le Guin, the 'Artemis Fowl' trilogy, "Tarzan of the Apes" by Edgar Rice Bourroghs Larry Niven and I've started reading the Wheel of Time........
There's probably more, but I can't think of them yet...
