Just finished "The Name of the Wind", a fantasy book. A Poor version of "Magician", but good enough to make me wait for the second book to come out. Oh I would recommend Magician, to anybody who would give Fantasy a try. Book I of the Riftwar trilogy... pure awesomeness. There's also a nice trilogy (Empire Trilogy)- written from a female perspective, tracing the story of Mara of the Acoma's rise to power from a convent novitiate to the most powerful woman on Kelewan ( tan tan taann). She kicks butt. End of story. (Both trilogies from the same writer... coincidence? Ich don't think so...) I'm under orders to read "Watchmen" now - comic book series en.wikipedia.org/wiki/WatchmenThe movie will come out this year (me thinks) and I've been told to read the book so I won't ask questions during the movie.

Hey Cool Avatar V! Reading "The Art of War" by Sun Tzu. Sensei Devane told me about it ages ago and is a must for all martial artists. Very cool. Another good one is "Dead or Alive" by Geoff Thompson. Best Self Defense book out there and most martial artists should get a lot from it.
