This book changed my lifeThe 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

Flogging a dead cylinderI thought "Rendezvous" was brilliant and hoped I'd be getting more of the same with the rest of the series. It's not a bad stab at keeping the ball rolling, but it does feel like someone on high complained of a lack of "contemporary features" like plenty of sex and the occasional murder - oh, and a tie-in with an illicit romance with a member of the Royal Family?!
All you need are shoulder pads and you've got early 90s pop American culture. When did these sequels get written? Ah...
