I'm currently reading "Het Reservaat" by Ward Ruyslinck, the moment the exams are over I'm going to go to a bookstore to get something decent to read... not that dutch literature is bad per se, just preachy.

Andrzej Sapkowski
Philip K. Dick Umberto Eco Henry Lion Oldi (two russian writers, if you find any of their book, you should buy it. They write very orignal fantasy books, so if you are bored of dragons, heroes, dwarfs, etc. you have to try them. But I think it's pretty hard to get any of their books outside Russia. In Poland the are onlu 4 books I read much more, but here are favourite authors. Now I'm reading some H.P Lovercraft stories. |

Philip K. Dick
Asimov Erich von Däniken John Caldwell and Jeffrey Stone (awesome parodies ) J. K. Rowling (I know it seems childish, but I DO like the Harry Potter series ) P. Howard By the way: does anyone have PHilip K. Dick books? I'd like to read them in original language, but I cannot find English versions here in hungary, no matter how hard I search
