SF/F Books: Chapter Two - What Are You Reading?

I'm 150 pages into book two of the excellent Eugenics Wars trilogy.

Our friend Greg Cox really outdid himself this time guys.
 
I really look at book 3 as seperate from the first two. While the first two were fun reads, and took a shot at trying to backfill things we knew about the Eugenics War with our own 'real' history that's 40 years ahead of what the writers had available at the time, the third book is the part that REALLY shines, IMO. That was an excellent book, despite (or maybe because of) the depressing nature of it. Just a well-written and interesting slide into darkness...
 
It's been awhile, but the Eugenics Wars trilogy has still really stuck in my head all this time. I need to go back and re-read it.
 
I got rid of most of my old TOS books a few months ago because I had no space to keep them, and I wasn't going to read them again anyway, but there were a few I just couldn't part with.

The Eugenics Wars, Burning Dreams, the Crucible trilogy and Ex Machina.

That's all I kept of the ones I had.
 
Just Finished: A Time to Heal
Reading : the last book in the "Time to" series from TNG, "A Time for War/Peace"

On the horizon.....Duma Key.
 
I'm currently reading TNG: Debtor's Planet by W. R. Thompson.

Depending on how long that takes me to read, I will either read another old TNG book which is sitting on my shelf, or Cussler's Treasure which I borrowed from the library. After that, I think I'll leave the library alone for a little while and plow through the CSI novels on my Kindle and some of the other books I have at home.
 
I'm just finishing up Timothy Zahn's Thrawn trilogy. When I'm done with that, I plan to read the fifth/final book in Rick Riordan's Percy Jackson series, which just came out in paperback.
