Airborn by Kenneth Oppel. Loved it. I know, it's a young adult book, but I'm a children's librarian. *ahem* Purely read for profession interest.

Harry Turtledove's War of the Provinces from the Russian Fiction Website. Strangely I haven't seen the book in paperback.....which downloaded and went into Mobibook format.
----------------------------
Ack! one reader noted that the English books are now hard to find on the Russian website. I knew it was comming but until I checked I didn't believe it.

Mainly I read text books - lately Developmental Neurobiology (Yay! Summer School :P). For fun - I've been working my way through "Everything's Eventual" by Stephen King (the new movie "1408" started out as a short story in this book)

Regular paperback: Prey by Michael Crichton, audible: Lord of Chaos by Robert Jordan

[dump71]

Audiobook, Lost World, Michael Crichton: As with all of his books, I think he overtly blends drama with moral/lecture. In this case, the balance was 90/10, which I think is characteristic of his earlier work. Pace was good, characters were interesting, and suspense pretty high---I really enjoyed it.

Paperback, State of Fear, Michael Crichton: It was as if I were reading two separate books (one-adventure/thriller, the other-lectures on the environment) that were just mixed together. I didn't enjoy reading it at all.

Ebook, Journey to the Center of the Earth, Jules Verne: Excellent classic!

[LupeValenz]

Oh yeah forgot to say what it is about. Prey: Its about research into Nanotechnology and making the small computer smart with a predator/prey program. Its learning ablitiy keeps on growing to the point where the programmers are the prey :).
As for Lord of Chaos: Its about an epic fantasy like Lord of the Rings. Prophcies fortold the Dragon would be reborn to fight against the Dark one and with that he be uniting the nations and break the world. Its simply a grand story and you are transported to another world because Robert Jordan gives so much detail to the world. Each nations have diffrent customs, people live diffrently depending on where they live. The characters are fleshed out with their own personalities. That's why I love the Wheel of time series :)

I wish I could get Lord of the Rings on my palm, because I enjoyed it so much when I read it a few years back. But I can't find an Ebook of it anywhere, I guess it isn't out of copyright yet, wasn't it written like 60 years ago?

For Lord of the Ring go here, download the text and use a converter:

I am currently working on getting through a book

I was actually pleasantly surprised by this one. “Tales of a New York Limo Driver” by Nicky Testaforte, I am really liking this one. Sex, Excess and Stupidity on Four Wheels... glimpse some excerpt at http://www.nylimotales.com/stories.html Down to the earth, so far it has my interest.
