Anyway, some books I reccomend:
Star By Star, Troy Denning
Traitor, Matt Stover
Anything by Timothy Zahn
The Left Behind Series, Jerry Jenkins
The Crucible, Arthur Miller (who strangely died right as I started to read the Crucible)
The Way Things Ought To Be, Rush Limbaugh, (even if you disagree with him politically it's a good read for some laughs)
Pretty much anything by RA Salvatore.
