If you like Harold Lamb check out Robert E. Howard as well, especially his Conan stories, they were fantastic.

I bought the whole collection book 1k pages or so I think and read it while I was eagerly awaiting the release of age of conan.

they were mostly pretty good, and more original than they might seem today since they are pretty old. not sure if I would ever re-read them tho.

I'm on C.J Sansom atm with Dark Fire. Read the first book and going to work my way through the series. They are quite good crime novels set in the 16th century:

A song of Ice and fire.Awesome books, although I find it rather disturbing that the Characters die like flies.

As a Stephen King's fan i'm reading Full Dark , No Stars.
Reading his books before sleeping is relaxing.

Atm, reading Pandora's Star by Peter F. Hamilton. It's big. And pretty good so far.

Love Gibson, although I've only read Neuromancer and Burning Chrome so far. I have too much on my reading list :/

Pandora Star was one of his best, and Judas Unchained has an awesome ending.  So you will like that arc, but most of Hamiltons stories have terrible endings.  I LOVED the Neutronium Alchemist series until the last 100 pages or so..... meh.  He is a great author though.
