BooksWe love books. Tell us about your favourite books and authors, and why they are so good. And while you're at it - having dined out for years on the time I threw Dan Brown out of a train window - tell us who to avoid.

That would have to be...Barry Trotter and the Shameless Parody,
Barry Trotter and the Unecessary Sequel,
The Soddit,
Bored Of The Rings.
Apparently written by J.R.R.R.R.Toking or something like that, via the Harvard Lampoon.(not sure of those details but they are as close as memory serves)
As piss-takes of the originals they make for very good reading, even if you don't know the characters it still is a very good read.
