I'm going to read 1984 when possible.. those books and 1984 went down well with LUE, as well as Fight Club, so I'm gonna buy them sometime.

Read the trilogy, and a few other R. A. Salvatore books such as the Highwayman. Good stuff.

Besides the obvious (the 5 books of the Hitchhiker's trilogy, the Lord of the Rings trilogy), here are my picks: Anything by Terry Pratchett, especially books in the Discworld series. Comedy gold, and brilliant satire to boot. The 3 Books of Swords, and the 8 (?) Books of Lost Swords, both by Fred Saberhagen. Great fanatsy books, with a bit of sci-fi edge thrown in on occasion for good measure. The 4 A Man of His Word books (Magic Casement, Faery Lands Forlorn, Perilous Seas, Emperor and Clown), by David Duncan. These may be VERY hard to find now (Amazon only had 3/4 available). Also, this series continues in A Handful of Men, but I never had a chance to read those. The Ender's Game series by Orson Scott Card. Especially the first book, not as much the others... I'm sure I could think of more, given time, but they escape me right now. So start with those. The Discworld series alone is some 20+ books by now anyway.

Orson Scott Card and the Author of The Boxes are the two best scifi writers ever . . . and the dude who wrote the series with The Search for Snout in it . . . I forget his name, but I read that when I was a wee kiddo and as I recall it was good . . .
