This book changed my life
The Goat writes, "Some books have made a huge impact on my life." It's true. It wasn't until the b3ta mods read the Flashman novels that we changed from mild-mannered computer operators into heavily-whiskered copulators, poltroons and all round bastards in a well-known cavalry regiment.
What books have changed the way you think, the way you live, or just gave you a rollicking good time?
Friendly hint: A bit of background rather than just a bunch of book titles would make your stories more readable

I was a lot younger and more cocksure back then...and a few of my friends still laugh at me for standing up a lady for a comic book. And then telling her I stood her up for a comic book. I was a bit of an idiot, truth be told :(
@Jeccy
Most of the old stuff is back in print, so almost all of the scanned copies got taken down...though www.oneshallstand.com still do the occasional story, and there are a bunch of torrents out there. In the real world, Titan published almost all of the UK stories in A4-sized graphic novels a few years back but they're kind of hard to find now, while IDW publish a monthly "Best of UK" title, collected into paperbacks every so often. The only problem is that since a lot of the UK stories feature Death's Head, IDW can't reprint them because of copyright issues with Marvel who still own the Death's Head character.
