Reading this summer
thehollow:
I think I'm gonna attempt to reread the entire Song of Ice and Fire series thus far in preparation for the A Dance With Dragons release. If I start now, I should be just about done by the time it comes out.

I got the second volume of Gaiman's Sandman yesterday while I was getting the 4th edition player's handbook.

--- Quote from: zerodrone on 07 Jun 2008, 13:36 ---Philip K. Dick is one of the three best novelists ever.
Some of his books are not masterpieces, but the sheer number of his that are more than makes up for it.
If you want to read the best first, go for:
Flow My Tears the Policeman Said
Clans of the Alphane Moon
The Game-players of Titan
A Scanner Darkly
Dr. Bloodmoney
VALIS
Counter-clock World
--- End quote ---
I would like to add Ubik to this list. Otherwise, I agree with all of those recommendations.
Oli:
This summer I will be splitting my reading equally a selection of the required reading for my course next semester and books I've been meaning to read but have't had the time because of uni. If all goes to plan I will read:
The Naked Lunch by William Burroughs
The Acid House by Irvine Welsh
Desolation Angels by Jack Kerouac
Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas by Hunter S Thompson
Rip it Up and Start Again: Postpunk 1978-1984 by Simon Reynolds
Troilus and Cressida by William Shakespeare
Paradise Lost by John Milton
The Mill on The Floss by George Eliot
Things Fall Apart by Chinua Achebe
The Importance Of Being Earnest by Oscar Wilde
Ulysses by James Joyce
I love summer reading.
