The Sword and Laser discussion

You can never have enough reading lists, I guess. Anyway, Patrick Rothfuss has answered a question of one his reader's about reading suggestions and his summer reading lists.

Lots of good stuff (at least the books I know). I'm thrilled to see The Neverending Story made it to his top 40. Also the comments also have a lot of suggestions.

Plus, a picture of some of his bookshelves.

I love these kinds of posts from Authors (and Musicians too). I think it gives one a lot of insight as to their inspirations, and obviously provides more fuel for our own ever growing 'to read' lists.

A nice list. I found I have read 16 of his top 40 and 5 of his 'almost made it' top 20.

I've read 30 of the 40, few from the next list, and about half of his "to read" list.

I always like to see what authors I like read in and out of genre. I've found some great histories that way, and I found the Dresden Files when it was originally published that way too.

Great lists; thanks, Anne!
