Try Michael Crichton. I have read three of his books:

1. Prey (Excellent Read)
2. State of Fear
3. The Andromeda Strain.

There are some others also.

lord of the rings...

will keep u hooked for a month...

i loved it.. it wont be boring a bit...

next if u want adventure go for books from clive cussler.. ( remmeber sahara movie ?? - its the adaptation of clive cussler novle )
next go for usual shidney shelton.. - fun/fast/matter ( *** ) / story.. everyone loves it...

^^ dude you like clive cussler too? I personally dont like sidney sheldon, jeffrey archer, stephen king.

You can read Robin Cook's books like Chromosome 6. They are medical mysteries but you dont have to know any medical stuff to understand.

Also, Dan Brown has these four novels which are very good - Angels & Demons, Da Vinci Code, Digital Fortress and Deception Point.

Any book of Clive Cussler is good. He writes underwater exploration novels, and I've read every single one of his Dirk Pitt adventures. Excellent stuff.

Temple and Seven Ancient Wonders by Matthew Reilly. They are a very light read, and quite comical, and action packed.

Robert Ludlum wrote excellent novels, and very catchy titles too, and pretty action-packed.

I've got more authors in my mind, but I guess this is enough for now.

^^^^^^ Same taste.... read most of the books u said... and of course.... childish books like Bartemius trilogy... eragon.. eldest.... Artemis Fowl series... Matthew Reilly's "Ice Station + Hell Island" omnibus (came cheap )

Have to try the Clive Cussler guy... seems promising..

[Cool G5]

Ohh thanks a lot..
This should keep me entertained for some weeks...

The Bourne Identity by Robert Ludlum. if you like the movie.. then you till like the novel even more. This was the first novel which I bought and totally satisfied

[dheeraj_kumar]

@koolbluez

I havent read Ice Station yet. I just finished The Odessa File by Frederick Forsythe, and started The Fist Of God by the same author. Pretty good one, but it ended far too quickly in my opinion. Its a pretty good read, about nazis.

Robert Ludlum, Sam Bourne, Dan Brown.

Robert Ludlum' books are awesome ones, though some people tend to think the endings are too simple for all the hype we face throught the book.

Dan Brown's books are all almost the same.
Guy n Gal get together in an awkward situation , end up facing a villain they thought was the good guy all along.

Hows the Last Testament by Sam Bourne? Thinkin of getting it.

[xbonez]

Shantaram by Gregory David Roberts

Twilight, New Moon, Eclipsed by Stephenie Meyers

[dheeraj_kumar]

I've read NEXT. Its pretty good, a typical Micheal Crichton book. As un-putdown-able as usual.

The Dark Side by Stephen King

Next.. was a Rated-M novel... but a good read.. regd genetic research... almost feels near-futuristic=possible to happen...

[dheeraj_kumar]

Try reading The Third Twin by Ken Follett. M rated too, but pretty good

[Pathik]
