[center][h2]F*ck Yeah Book Recommendations![/h2][/center]

Hello fellow readers and writers! This is a thread where you list and discuss various books you have read/books you recommend to others to check out and read. I thought for a site of writers there was very little discussion on what they read, since that's usually how people start writing to begin with. This has probably been made before, but I felt like it. Try to differentiate between topics and genres, and give explanations when you feel like ranting or gushing. For example: 

[u]Non Fiction[/u]: (Historical)
[b]Swordsmen of the British Empire[/b] by D.A. Kinsley: If you're looking for a book about accounts of [i]primary sources[/i] on swordsmen and their swords, and how warfare/duels were truly conducted in the British Empire, check this book out. It spans from the 17th to the 20th centuries and you'll not get tired of it. A very good source for your research if you're into that. 

[u]Fiction[/u]: (Dark Fantasy)
[b]Gotrek & Felix: Trollslayer[/b] by William King: If you haven't read any books on Warhammer Fantasy, this is a great place to start, or just another good read if you're familiar with the lore. It's got a gruff and grim Dwarf who seeks a mighty doom, followed around by reluctant young poet/duelist who swore an oath to record his doom, and who now needs to follow the Dwarf into insanely violent situations seeking worse and more dangerous foes. It's so fricken good. There's about 15 books in the series, but Trollslayer is book one with a bunch of short stories. 

Go ahead and regale us with a few books you enjoy!
