    Thread title pretty much says it all. What are you reading right now (if anything), what do you think of it and would you recommend it?

    "The Runelords" by David Farland

    Very good fantasy series I recommend it to fans of "Lord of The Rings" series.

    Inferno: World at War 1939-1945 by Max Hastings

    It gives you a great summary of the entire WW2 from all theaters and at perspective of a little guy. Also tells stories overshadowed by WW2 such as Bengal famine, when at least 1.5 million people died.

    Ender's Game by Orson Scott Card

    This book is so good that when I'm reading something, I ask "Why am I not reading Ender's Game right now?"

    Book of Five Rings by Miyamoto Musashi. Interesting piece of philosophy.

    I'm reading The Dragon's Path by Daniel Abraham. It's pretty great so far.

    Sounds very interesting. I couldn't find a Dutch version, though, and reading such a book in English would probably cause me not to get any word of what he writes.
