What book are you reading?

[Dylar]

re-reading Thrawn cause it's sooo good. Then I might re-re-re-re-read the Republic Commando series

[Onikarha]

Currently reading Aztec by Gary Jennings, afterwards I plan on moving on to the Mistborn Series by Brandon Sanderson.

[The Grene Knyght]

Night over Water - Ken Follett.
Really enjoyed and would highly recommend the last Follett I read (The Pillars of the Earth), but that is supposedly one of his best so I son't know if this one will meet my high expectation. Hopefully it will though.

[Anywhere Else But Here]

The Shadow of the Torturer by Gene Wolf. God, this book's fucking weird.

[Old Tyrannia]

Do Androids Dream Of Electric Sheep?, Philip K. Dick. It's a fairly thin volume, but very engrossing. I actually enjoy the book much more than I did the famous film adaptation, Blade Runner.

[War Gears]

Being and Time by Martin Heidegger.

[The Macabees]

Do Androids Dream Of Electric Sheep?, Philip K. Dick. It's a fairly thin volume, but very engrossing. I actually enjoy the book much more than I did the famous film adaptation, Blade Runner.

I love Phillip K. Dick, but I've never read the book. With that kind of endorsement I'll have to pick it up.

A three-part book about the English Civil War. I am reading the 2nd part, The King's War.

The Shadow of the Torturer by Gene Wolf. God, this book's fucking weird.

Gene Wolf is always that way. Welcome to the nightmare.

Frederick Forsyth - The afghan

[Anywhere Else But Here]

The Shadow of the Torturer by Gene Wolf. God, this book's fucking weird.

Gene Wolf is always that way. Welcome to the nightmare.

So I've heard. He seems to set up a new sub-plot every chapter and never bothers to resolve them. Severian is like a player in an RPG who wanders about starting side-quest after side-quest and never even thinking of finishing any of them before going off to the next thing. And yet it never feels like anything less than great writing.

Currently reading Nausea by Jean-Paul Sartre, read The Stranger (The Outsider) by Albert Camus before this, which is easier to understand in my opinion.
Anyone who read Ecce Homo, Beyond Good and Evil or On the Genealogy of Morals by Friedrich Nietzsche or one of his other books and can tell me which one is the best to start with? Thanks in advance

Well, a book of philosophy is look like a Bible, you can check it thousand times whenever you want. But the most important is that you understand the mainstream idea, the core thinking of the author. Usually that first idea starts up in a book and after the author follow it in other books the rest of development. You need to know the bibliography of him to get the book that starts everything.

Nietzsche started their philosophic thinking with the french-prussian war, the moralist teology and the ancient greeks filology. All this will merge in a radical need to find a theory about the free dignity of each human being.

Therefore I suggest you to start with "Die Geburt der Tragödie aus dem Geiste der Musik" (The birth of tragedy from spirit of music). You will see the intellectual dichotomy between the dionysian and the Apollonian worlds (the creative disorder vs the right order), etc. In this book you will understand everything about Nietzsche's core ideas.

Don't even start with a Nietzsche book. Start with Walter Kauffman's amazing intellectual biology, and then maybe read actual Nietzsche.
