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

"Him being there won't affect the eventual outcome."
Oh really? There'd be a shedload of dead northern barbarians who'd disagree about the "unnaffected" eventual outcome -- i.e. those who got slaughtered by that specific aging warrior before the battle was lost. Still, you wouldn't expect Death to care about pointing _that_ out: all the more killing for him.
Good book though -- but the ending was a bit overblown -- a common Gemmel fault, IMO.
