Favorite books Watership Down by Douglas Adams. Loved it since a kid The Stand, The Shining and Night Shift and the Bachman Books by Stephen King. Best Apocalyptic book, best ghost story, best short story collection and best novella collection. IMHO :c) The Angel of Darkness by Caleb Carr. 2nd book in the series. Like rich dark chocolate. An american version of Sherlock Holmes with a team and historical fiction and the beginnings of modern criminiological theory. The Burke Series (Flood, Strega, Blue Belle, Hard Candy, Blossom, Sacrifice, Down in the Zero, Footsteps of the Hawk, Dead and Gone, Pain Management, and more) by Andrew Vachss. Best hardboiled detective fiction ever. Out masters Dashel Hammet and Robert B. Parker. Currently, I'm reading "Flyboys". True stories about the pacific airwar, including the shooting down of Avenger pilot George H. W. Bush. The Hobbit by JRR Tolkein. Again loved it since a child. This Presant Darkness by Frank Piretti. Bar none, the most accurate descriptions of spiritual warfare ever done. A primer for how to fight against satan. The Great Divorce and The Screwtape Letters by C.S. Lewis. Outstanding books on Heaven, hell and the activities of demons in your life. The Stephanie Plum Series (One for the Money, Two for the Dough... etc.) By Janet Evanovich. How to be a bailbondswoman... or rather how NOT to be. Hilarious detective fiction. It's a short list, but it'll do. :c)
