Oo, yay, saves me from having to use my sheer brute force to get you to read it.
It's such a good book. I'd read it again but it'd make me all sad and stuff. :/
Okay, wee, suggestions now.
*E.M. Forster-A Passage To India. I'm really biased, but I feel the urge to recommend this book to everyone. >.<
*C.S. Forester's Hornblower series, if you haven't already read it. Have only read the first two(there's 11, I hear), but I find them to be good(so far).
*I'm seconding the vote for you to read the His Dark Materials trilogy, kthx.
*David Anthony Durham-Pride of Carthage. Historical fiction surrounding Hannibal Barca.
*Aldous Huxley-Brave New World. Aaah you might have read it already and if so, this suggestion's null. :/
*Rudyard Kipling-Kim. Okay, so I'm biased again, but still.
*John Berendt-Midnight in the Garden of Good and Evil.
*Gabriel King-The Wild Road and The Golden Cat, in that order.
