If you can read, you can answer the question.

Mine would have to be The Iliad by Homer and The Aeneid by Virgil. Both are great books but require mechanical minds to read. It's suprisingly tough to keep up.

Never hear of The Aeneid, but I've read The Illiad. Illiad was good, but I prefer The Oddessy to it.

My current favorites are The Wheel of Time series. I've read through book 9 right now.

I still have to pick up and read The Odyssey, but I'm sure I'll love it. And yeah, they're extreemely hard to follow. You have to read a chapter twice sometimes.

I like pretty much all of Tom Clancy's books--at least, the ones I've read anyway. So far I've read The Hunt For Red October and Teeth of the Tiger (his newest one) and right now, I'm in the middle of reading The Bear and the Dragon. (The Bear is Russia, the Dragon is China. :-D )

I was looking at buying Beowulf for future reading. I hear it's a very intelligent read. Has anyone heard of it before?

Aha, you are Eko. I knew it. I was suspicious of your name.

For all who don't understand, Matrim is the name of one of three main people in the WoT.
