No I haven't Max... But I 'll have to Check them out thanks for the Recomendation!!!

No Prob,man! I have a ton of Star Trek Novels and those two are the best! I don't know if they are in print but a good used-book store or Amazon should be able to hook you up!

Well i love the Star Trek: New Frontier series(just can't afford them in hardcover)! Another great sci-fi series that i read while on activation was the Atlantis gate series by the same arthor of the Area51 book but under another name(Robert Doherty I believe)! And for military fiction i recommend the Brotherhood of War and The Corps series by W.E.B. Griffin. and i am hopefully going to be able to finally read Harry Potter and the order of the Phoenix so that i can see the movie and then read the last 2 books. And as far as Star Wars I actually like the novels that have gone back before the whole NJO that are filling in the gaps! and i wish i could afford to get back into reading the new GI Joe comics.... I hope these have helped.

Okay, I'm back. I haven't been reading a lot of "real" books lately-- Mainly just comics. This week, I picked up World War Hulk #2, World War Hulk: X-Men #2, Avengers: The Initiative #4, and Captain America #28.

Also, I've been reading lots of comic book trade paperbacks. I just finished Fantastic Four Visionaries: John Byrne volume 7, and just today, I received the new printing of Captain America: War & Remembrance, which collects the complete run of Roger Stern and John Byrne's Cap stories from 1980-ish.

I used to read Star Trek and Star Wars novels vociferously, but I stopped with Star Wars around the time the New Jedi Order series started, and I dropped Star Trek about when TNG went off the air-- Though I picked it up again for a couple of years when the DS9 continuation books started.

Whenever I do read a real, prose book, it's usually some Sherlock Holmes. I never get tired of re-reading those.

Oh man-I have Cap-War & Remembrance! What a collection of stories.It torques me that Jim Shooter let them quit the book rather than let them do a 3 part story....WTF?

Generally I stick to non-fiction. I'm a huge student of history (especially military) and a voracious reader of true crime and detection books (I come from a police family). Being particularly "into" the US Civil War means I'll usually be reading something on that subject, but at the moment I'm almost through Sins of the Brother, which is the true story of Ivan Milat, the serial killer who preyed on back-packers here in Australia in the 80's and 90's.

I'm finishing the 3rd novel in the Icewind Dale Trilogy: The Halfling's Gem... R.A. Salvatore is a genius!... before that I read Tanis: The Shadow Years (Dragonlance) and Ravenor (WH 40k).

I like WH40k novels a lot, specially Dan Abnett's Gaunt series, the way he mixes military and sci-fi is great.

The readout on the cash register...
