Hands down:

The Hot Zone -- I forget the author, About the Ebola Virus, I have never read a book like this one where it actually scared me while reading it... I did toke sometimes while reading it so that may have influenced me...

But I defentaly recommend it...

hehe, i love the Illimunati, got the Trilogy. actaully, my three favorite authors are Robert Anton Wilson, Arthur C. Clarke (2001 Space Oddyssey...the series), and John Wyndham.

thanks for the recommendations.

Shaman have you read "Everything is Under Control" by Robert Anton Wilson? a favorite book of mine
