ADAM DIKE

Information on this interesting character has yet to be released to the public; however, we do know of his preferences in books.

Foundation by Isacc Asimov
Absolutely breathtaking in scope, Foundation manages to span thousands of years and remain riviting. Asimov's vision of the future is compelling.

 

Gardens of the Moon by Steven Erikson
No black and white hats here. Erikson populates a fantastic world with imperfect characters, mucking their way through ambiguous situations. Rather dark and tragic, it is almost as if Erikson uses fantasy to reflect on reality.

Across the Nightingale Floor by Liam Hearn
Hearn writes beautifully. Her prose is simple, economical and elegant, and reflects her immersion in Japanses culture. And it's a really fun tale!

 

Dune by Frank Herbert
Adventeous Science Fiction on the desert planet of Arrakis, Dune delivers all the goods: space travel y spics, prophecies, a messiha and much, much more. A classic.

The Eye of the World by Robert Jordan
Epic fantasy straight-up. You get your child of the prophecy, your black and white hates, and more magic than you can shake a stick at. Jordan's main strength is his characters.

 

The Anubis Gates by Tim Powers
Most simply speaking, this is a time travel novel. Filled with a wild cast of characters including Samuel Taylor Colridge, an ancient Egyptian sorceror and a body-shifting werewolf, this is perhaps the strangest book I have ever read.

 

Gaurds Gaurds! byTerry Prattchet
Gaurds Gaurds! is one of Prattchet's funniest Diskworld novels. Try it out. Prattchet's humor is infectious.

Jitterbug Perfume by Tom Robbins
This is Tom Robbins at his best. You care about the characters, the story is compelling, and you get Robbins's hilarious sense of humor and general joie de vivre.

The Hobbit by J.R.R. Tolkien
Great for all ages, The Hobbit is an absolutely fantastic adventure story.

 

The Lord of the Rings by J.R.R. Tolkien
A classic. Nothing more needs to be said.
