I wish I could say I was actually recommending any of them. I don't think I've come across a book I'd truly recommend in a long time. Even Blood and Gold, I must say I only adore for personal reasons. Up until Akasha gets up, the tragedy of Marius' love life does so mirror my own - aside from his fascination with young boys. >_>

Point of Impact by Steven Hunter is actually pretty fricken sweet
I saw the Mark Whalberg shooter screenplay and thought it decent fodder, but the book just really makes the story come to life

TAK´s wonderful mind is getting wasted in shitty task. Get over here brah, we love gringos and the national university, top 100 ranked worldwide, is free for all or at least the taxes pay for it, just learn some spanglish.
Anyone here fan of William Gibson´s books? My fav is still The Sprawl trilogy ( Neuromancer, Count Zero & Mona Lisa Overdrive). Also I enjoyed The Cuckoo's Egg by Clifford Stoll. Good readings. Recommended.

Yeah, I'm a Gibson fan. Neuromancer is the "classic" of the series, but I actually liked Count Zero a bit more.
