Mitchner great reads all his books. Michener's earlier books surpassed the ones later in his career. He has an amazing way of moving you through time in his books. However, I have read almost all of his single title books with Hawaii being my favorite. He tells an amazing story starting with a bird shitting on the island. I will have to go surf Amazon to see what I may have missed. BTW, he lived locally. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My latest, recent purchase, in the 150th anniversary year of the network is "Underground: How The Tube Shaped London". I have been a huge fan of our capital's "metro" or "subway" train service since childhood, when a ticket cost just twopence (in pre-decimal currency). I also have some unread biographies and travelogues to get through. I am the same Deejay, can't remember when i last read any fiction, i tend to go for biographies nowadays, or something about WW2.

Hands down, Steven Erikson's (and Ian C. Esselmont's) "Malazan Book of the Fallen Series" http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Malazan_Book_of_the_Fallen. Long, meaty books, well written, and great characters and plots. To keep track of who's-who-in-the-zoo, there are a couple of encyclopedias/wikis online: Malazan Empire – Major fansite, including a FAQ and a forum occasionally frequented by Erikson and his associates. Encyclopaedia Malazica – Major wiki, frequented by Steven Erikson. +1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options... Awards

If you like non fiction WW II seriously consider "With the Old Breed" by E B Sledge as I mentioned earlier. It is truly a classic written by one who was there. A highly recommended read. Forgive me for posting twice about the same book but that also show my opinion of the book. In fact I just ordered it to have on my Kindle. For me , worth reading twice and books I would read twice are few and far between. Can't think of any others at the moment. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/With_the_Old_Breed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
