I saw A Confederacy of Dunces when I glanced at /book/ at one point, and I just finished reading it a while. Ago. Thanks for recommending it by the way, fuckers.

Now I move onto finishing Atlas Shrugged, The Tempest, and then The Last Wish by that Polish guy.

I just finished the God Delusion. A great book unless you're religious and take offense to everything.

I'm reading Triplanetary by E. E. "Doc" Smith.  It was recommended to me by a friend.  I'm forever in his debt.  I'm a sucker for this kind of stuff.

Maurice Leblanc's Arsene Lupin, Gentleman-Thief. Just started reading it today, seems to be pretty good.

Ganimard always seems to be a step behind Lupin and even when he does catch him he gets away.

The Rediscovery of Man (NESFA Press) by Cordwainer Smith. Pretty nifty stuff, I'd go so far as saying it's mandatory reading for any sci-fi geek.

Christopher Homm by C.H. Sisson

It's one of the first examples of 'negative narration.' So far, so good.

Actually more interesting, and less dull than I had feared it would be.

Ok I havent read a book since my Computer Science course ended. 
Right now I'm reading Dante's Inferno, cause I liked Devil May Cry. 

Pretty good, however some of the references are lost on me.  Also its a translation from the latin which is in old english which doesnt really help. 

Lots of words like "tarry" and "lombard" which I had no idea the meaning behind.
