Got halfway thru John Dies At The End, I had to give it a rest for a bit. Just too........fucking weird.
I'm all for some fucked up fiction, but this felt like a silly comic or something.
I started The Stand and wow! that's a book and a half. I'm 400 pages in of 1150...can't put it down.
Any clue where that title comes from?
Also started Harry Potter  also pretty good. Read #1 and am halfway thru #2. Enjoyable

The Dune series (Frank Herbert's, his sons continuation sucks apparently although I havnt tried them) is an epic masterpiece...seriously, do it...I've read your posts, definitely the sort of thing you would be into.
The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy is a good laugh too.
The Dune Series is AWESOME and I've read his son's work too and it is AWESOME too. Definately recommend it, the series technically starts out with his son's "Dune: The Butlerian Jihad" and there's like 20 books after that, really epic. All the books have lots of philosophy in them too, that's how I see it.

The explanation of the name will become clear at the end of the book. That is my favorite book of all time. I wish I could go back and read it again without knowledge of what happens. The Stars, My Destination by Bester is fucking sick as well. As is Another Roadside Attraction by Robbins. That, Vonnegut's Cat's Cradle, and Rand's The Fountainhead have by far the best endings I have ever read. I recommend all of those books. Every fucking one is fucking AWESOME.

Its great so far. Mother Abigal is awaiting company right now. Excited to see what happens.
I had to get the uncut version, 400 extra pages than the original release. I loved how it broke down and built what the sickness did and the personal impacts it caused :-)
Eerie!

Gargantua and Pantagruel by François Rabelais
Quote:
The Life of Gargantua and of Pantagruel is a connected series of five novels written in the 16th century by François Rabelais.
It is the story of two giants, a father (Gargantua) and his son (Pantagruel) and their adventures, written in an amusing, extravagant, satirical vein. The text features much crudity, scatological humor, and violence. Lists of explicit or vulgar insults fill several chapters. The censors of the Sorbonne stigmatized it as obscene, and in a social climate of increasing religious oppression, it was dealt with suspicion, and contemporaries avoided mentioning it.
According to Rabelais, the philosophy of his giant Pantagruel, "Pantagruelism", is rooted in "a certain gaiety of mind pickled in the scorn of fortuitous things"

I finished The Stand a little bit ago. Pretty awesome book. I guess this ending was changed and some parts added for depth.
Highly reccommend!

Haunted by Chuck Palhaniuk = one of the best books I've ever read.
Also recommend the Girl With The Dragon Tattoo series by Steig Larsen. Excellent books; it's a shame the guy's not around to make more awesomeness.
Some other all-time favorites of mine:
Imajica by Clive Barker
Invisible Monsters by Palhaniuk
Gone Baby Gone by Dennis Lehane
Travels With My Aunt by Graham Greene
A Confederacy of Dunces by John Kennedy Toole (This book literally made me laugh out loud - that's not something that happens very often with a book!)
Happy reading!

Good looking out on the Max Brooks; I was gonna suggest that as well. Either World War z or the Zombie Survival Guide; both are excellent books.
