How far are you into Atlas Shrugged? I've tried to pick it up a couple times now but have been unable to finish it. Mostly my fault but the book is pretty intimidating too, and it kind of starts off slow. Still though, out of all of Rand's books, thats the one that seems to get the most attention.
I can totally vouch for The Fountainhead though. It's an amazing story. It's probably an easier book to pick up too.

I've been really into fantasy but I've only read a few series:
1. A Song if Ice and Fire
2. Wheel of Time
3. All Tolkien books
4. Asimov and other older Sci-fi books (ie Dune series)
I really would like to read more but I'm overwhelmed with the different sagas and story lines and offshoots.. Can you give me a reading order recommendation? I've been meaning to do this for years but I haven't found a 'reliable' source. Maybe you guys can help?
Oh and Grifter, your PM box is full -- I tried to write this to you

I just realized I read "Demons Don't Dream" by Piers Anthony and I LOVED it as a little kid. The whole idea of being transported into a video game was just unreal.
I cant believe its smack dab in the middle of the Xanth series. I'm totally going to start that series.
