ITT recommend books I should buy.

My preferred genres would be Sci-Fi/Military stuff for fiction.
Examples being 40K books, Metro 2033, Sharpe Series and Crowner John.

However, despite my appetite for reading I haven't read a whole lot of sci-fi books outside of the black library stuff >.>

So, recommend shit that I should get over christmas.

And if anyone could tell me which of the Dune books I should get, I would be grateful >.>

Also there's some Mass Effect books. Haven't read them so I don't know what they're like.

I also add Star Wars republic Commando and some of the Starcraft stuff.

This is not the greatest sig in the world, no. This is just a tribute.
What say you on typical fantasy?

Seconded.
Just be prepared for the disappointment in knowing that we'll never see the series concluded because of the Clone Wars tv series.

I should maybe point out that I already have some of the halo books (But not the forerunner stuff... the first book was bleugh so I didn't follow that series)

Mass Effect/Star Wars aren't really my thing either <.<
I enjoyed the ME games and the Star Wars films but the extended universe stuff isn't reaaaally what I enjoy >.>

I knew it. I fucking knew it. Even though the post is clearly written in a sarcastic manner you faggots jump on it because I'm the one who wrote it. Doesn't fucking matter what I say, internet reputations are that important for you losers. Good luck in life if you're going to act that autistically.

The irony here is palpable.
You are the one getting platinum mad over a maymay post dustin, why does shit like that bother you so?

You will find out who you are not a thousand times, before you ever discover who you are. I hope you find peace in yourself and learn to love instead of hate.

Don't mention that around any archive guys.

However, I find Broken Circle, TFoR-First Strike and Contact Harvest to be particularly good in that series.

Killing stuff... not focused entirely on politics... umm...

Oh!

If you are looking to spread out, this series is one of my personal favorites.

34 is.
The incredibly mixed reviews on it have me constantly putting off importing it from Bongland, since, once again, I don't think a US publisher has taken it up.

Awesome. I live in bongland so I may order it then let you know how it is. I loved 2033, I hope 34 carries this on. We need more post-nuclear fiction, it's such an interesting genre. Why no Fallout books?

I just wish the game kept closer to the book..

You hear 4A's plans for the next metro game? Remember these are the guys that worked on STALKER, they want to make an open-world Metro

Ehh, I'm happy with the way they did the game. The kind of story that Glukhovsky told, while fantastic, wouldn't make for a very entertaining FPS game.

Well they can suck my plasma rifle, I think all the forerunner demystifying stuff is kind of sad. I enjoyed it a lot more when they weren't turned into petty human reflections.

Quote
The first characters introduced are two unnamed women in mortal peril, one who is pregnant and one who has just given birth. The pregnant one is trying desperately to reach shelter during a snowstorm. She is an outcast of her people, the Avar because she has decided to carry her child, conceived during a festival and considered an abomination, to term. A group of demonic creatures, skraelings, watch as her unborn child brutally eats his way out of her womb, killing her. The monsters are delighted and decide to adopt the hateful child.

Sold to the gentleman with the eye twitch and the shakes!
