Wow...i didnt think this thread would get much attention, thanks for the replies people
Im just about at the end of the last of the Nick Stone series of books from Mcnab, ive enjoyed every one of them, full of action, brit humour, and you can learn stuff from them.
Next up, i have 3 books by an Aussie author named Matthew Reilly, they sound quite good.
The last books i´ve read was the "Bartimaeus Trilogy" by Jonathan Stroud. A very amusing and funny series...
At the moment i read the 2nd part of Cornelia Funkes Inkheart Trilogy "Inkspell" and The Led Zeppelin Concert File by Dave Lewis. And , of course, a lot of tales from Brothers Grimm, H.C.Andersen and others and also stories from "Wickie" with my 3 year old daughter.

I didn't realise Steve earle had a biography - off to Amazon to buy that now.
i bought 6 novels and 2 biographies the other day, and ordered a stack of queen (not her maj, but the band) books from amazon. one day i'll get round to reading them all.
I finished reading a Matthew Reilly novel called *Ice Station*, What a great fricking book!!!
Its an action book, main character is a Marine, tough bugger too!! Its basically a hollywood blockbuster movie, but as a novel, you can totally imagine watching it in the cinema!!!
If you like action movies/ novels, im implore you to check this one out, its fantastic!!
I just started reading another of Reilly`s books, called *Temple* Starting off slow, but hope it gets better!
I've heard some good things about Reilly! Might have to check some out...I think the parents have some i could probably borrow...
I've got a new batch of books coming in, including the first few collections of Buffy Season 8, which is basically a graphic novel type thing still done by Joss Whedon continuing from where the TV show left off...should be good!

My Dad is reading "The Cell" by Stephen King and he loves it. Once he's done I'll start that one up.
