click here to order	"Snowcrash" by Neal Stephenson. A cyberpunk rollercoaster ride, complete with violence, sex, larger than life villains and heroes AND a clear vision of the nature of language, magic, reality and imagination. Can language hurt you? What is the difference between a virus and a religion? What secret is shared by the U.S Government, a strange fundamentalist cult, the greatest multi millionaire tycoon that ever lived, the ancient magicians of Sumeria and a mysterious Aleut gangster whose mere presence makes Geiger counters shake?
Hopscotch click here to order	"Hopscotch" by Julio Cortazar Cortazar challenges the foundations of perception, thought and feelings with every word he writes. This is possibly his greatest and definitely his most famous long work. The form is the content and the content is the form. The book has two different but complementary aspects to it. One is a mostly straightforward novel and the other is the inner magical world of the writer / storyteller. You have a choice at the end of each chapter on how you want to continue. The novel takes you into another being's world and then proceeds to show you all those little assumptions, all those residues from childhood that continue to create your subjective universe and, in the middle of it all, it shows you the secret efforts to transcend it, to move outwards into objective reality.
click here to order	"Watchmen" by Alan Moore and Dave Gibbons The ultimate comic book / graphic novel. If you read comic books regularly, or if you use to read them but stopped or even if you have never read them, this is the book to have! If there are superpowerful beings who watch over the world and keep humanity safe then a question inmediately surfaces: Who watches the Watchmen?
Harlot's Ghost click here to order	"Harlot's Ghost" by Norman Mailer The spy novel that transcends the genre into a realm of magic, dark unconscious forces and subtle emotional manipulations. Follow the journey of a young CIA operative through half a century of U.S. and CIA history and see how the story looked from the "other side".
