I also recommend reading the Perry Rhodan series when you have a couple of years to spare. Cool! Haha people always take my suggestion to read Vance when I mention what GRRM said about him  . I should mention I like the books by Vance that I read before Dying Earth, called the Demon Princes, a little more than Dying Earth. If I were to recommend a Vance book it would be that. There are five novels in the Demon Princes series, the first one is called The Star King. Demon Princes is a much more standard sci-fi setting than Dying Earth, it takes place out in space in a galactic civilization. Really cool stories about this guy named Gersen who is out for revenge against the five Demon Princes, who aren't really demons but are super-powerful intergalactic crime lords who fucked his planet over and hes one of the few survivors. Each of the 5 books is him tracking down and killing one of the 5 demon princes. | ||

If you are intersted in space, science, computers or conspiracy. You s hould read these books. His books have themes like that, Deception Point - Involves space the ocean and fun to read, imo. Only if your itnersted in that stuff. Digital Fortress - Interesting to read, has to do with computer hacking and codes, with a most entertaining storyline, once again imo. Angels & Demons - Religious rituals conspiracy, this book was amazing to read, it deosn't preach religious views, it just throws stuff out there, i enjoyed it very very much. Similiar to the Da Vinci Code. I personally beleive it was better, contained more action, and had a better storyline, can't wait for the movie The Da Vinci Code - Who doens't know about this? Great book. | ||

I'm not the biggest reader, in all honestly. It takes a lot for me to get into a book, but once it has me, I won't put it down (much) until I'm finished. I also go through reading spurts. I won't read a single book for a couples months, and then I'll read 3-4 in 1-2 days. I just need to get into the habit of doing it more often.  | ||

 Recently finished Dan Simmons' Ilium and Olympos duo, which were pretty amazing pieces of sci-fi... also the Star Wars: X-Wing series (all 9 lol; fun reads, albeit lacking in substance) Next up are the third and fourth books in Simmons' Endymion series, and my calculus textbook | ||

Angels and Demons was better then The DaVinci Code, imo (It's the prequal to davinci code.) If you are intersted in space, science, computers or conspiracy. You s hould read these books.
