Some good sci-fi there. <br />http://www.amazon.com/Mutineer-Kris-Longknife-Mike-Shepherd/dp/044101142X/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1263561617&sr=8-1<br /><br />Maria J Snyder's first trilogy starting with Poison Study is also really great.

I am not familiar with the "med-fan-italian-renaissance" books. Who is the author?<br /><br />@Karitas - I have thought about reading some of the 40k stuff but I didn't know where to start. I think I will give Eisenhorn a shot. I have read the Robert Jordan books, up to book 6, then I lost interest. Dune was amazingly weird, though I am still disappointed there were no weirding modules =) Gemmell and Eddings both look interesting. Thanks for the suggestions!<br /><br /><br /><br />I appreciate theShelexiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15288618329319913505noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-715300297218240126.post-85334238737146575752010-01-15T05:49:31.141-06:002010-01-15T05:49:31.141-06:00As a 40k Fan, you should read Dan Abnett.
the gau...As a 40k Fan, you should read Dan Abnett.<br /><br />the gaunt's ghost books, and especially the Eisenhorn trilogy are awesome.<br /><br />outside 40k, I'm fond of the Robert Jordan wheel of time books, anything by David Gemmell, and David Eddings, but those are just mostly fluff reading.<br /><br />for awesome you have to read Dune. (Frank Herbert) and the next few written by him, skip his son's books. :)<br /><br />oh my i could go on and on, I read voraciously :)Karitashttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06811166981334472345noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-715300297218240126.post-44442892216145068052010-01-15T05:06:35.811-06:002010-01-15T05:06:35.811-06:00I've read all the Vorkosigan's books and i...I've read all the Vorkosigan's books and i've begin the "med-fan-italian-renaissance" books and they're quite good indeed.nikkohttp://www.miniaturesasylum.canalblog.comnoreply@blogger.com
