I wasn't able to get into Cornwell's Last Kingdom.

But I've read all his Sharpe books and his Warlord Chronicles are wonderful.

You really have to spend time on the very first part of the book, with all the names and the places. He has a long glossary of all the non-english terms. I was curious why he spent so much time on it later, but you really need it in order to make sense of the book.

"Toast" by Charles Stross. Before that I read "The Atrocity Archives" by Charles Stross and "Glasshouse" by Charles Stross, somewhere in between I read "Thud" by Terry Pratchett (incidentally his best in quite some time IMO...)

I also listen to "The fabric of the cosmos" by Brian Greene on audio book.

Just recently got Cell by Stephen King, reading it now - one of King's most recent works. You got to love the optimism

The Damned - from LA Banks' Vampire Huntress Legend series

Third and a Mile: The Trials and Triumph of the Black Quarterback

SAS Secret War Operation Storm in the Middle East (about Oman)

Edit: actual title is SAS Secret War: Codename Operation Storm, hardcover from HarperCollins (Great Britain). (I searched on Amazon for SAS Secret War and came up with the above title in paperback from Greenhill Books. It's the same author, not sure if the text is different or not.)
