[icon]

A very interesting book about information theory, which examines its origins along with all the personalities involved.

[icon]

A set of golf stories told mostly by the oldest member of the Golf Club. Done in the usual Wodehouse style, very amusing, though probably better if you understand golf (which I don’t).

[icon]

The second in the Heritage of Shannara series it takes on the story of one of the characters and touches briefly upon another introduced in the first book. It has plenty of action as well as character development. Certainly not a stand alone book.

[icon]

An explanation in more digestible form of M-Theory and all of the things leading up to it. A very interesting read that makes you think about theories of existence and the role of science in defininig it.

[icon]

An amusing tale in his usual style with a dose of commentary on politics, power and lobbying set in Florida.

The third book in the Heritage of Shannara series, it is more emotionally charged than the previous books. A lot of things are revealed and resolved, though not easily, and everything is set for the concluding book in the series.
