My all-time favorite book is the Grapes of Wraith by Steinbeck. I have not read too many Star Trek books.

The only Star Trek related book I ever read was Generations, and that was really good. Otherwise, I'm big on Fantasy and Horror. Though at the moment I'm really enjoying American Gods by Neil Gaiman.

what is american gods about I've barely gotten through the second chapter yet, but it's about a man, Shadow, who was in prison for three years, and when he was released, he discovered his wife was killed in a car accident [with the man she was having an affair with, while Shadow was in prison]. He meets up with a very strange man on the plane, who seems to pop up unnexpectedly, and offers him a job. Weird supernatural stuff happens. It's really interesting. I think you'll like it, cuz I think it draws a bit from various myths.

^i have several books on these topics the book of merlin i think youd love to read its about druidism Hmn. You've piqued my interest. I want to learn more about Druidism actually, both the modern stuff and the older roots. And I'm interested in reading into the legends of King Arthur, the Holy Grail and Merlin. Isn't Stonehenge tied in with the tales of Merlin? That's something else that really fascinates me. That, and the leylines....

Aside from Star Trek, I love to read fantasy books. Like say Dragonlance, Wheel of Time, Robert Jordan, etc...I like to read about Dungeons and Dragons.
