"Magnificat" by JULIAN MAY.

It is the final instalment of the most wonderful, exciting and remorselessly detailed yet dynamic and plot-driven series of science fiction novels I have ever read.

After reading Julian May's novels, I have found it impossible to read another science fiction book again and truly enjoy. May really is the final word in satisfying science fiction.

Do yourself a favour; read her very first, The Many Coloured Land. You will not regret it.

Currently, i've got 'Brave New World', by Aldous Huxley.

Cracking book, very scary. Similar to Orwells 1984, but its much more realistic ie the worlds a Consumer Utopia, where happiness is the only pursuit. Its a brilliant parody of modernity

It's All Greek to me by John Mole. It is about an English family who lived and bought a broken down house on Evia in the early 70's (I also have ahouse there) and what they went through. It is hysterical!!
