1. First book to leave a lasting impression?

It was a big children’s book of stories and there was a great Christmas story about a kid who wanted a bicycle. He looked in his stocking and found an orange with directions to find the next present. He has a treasure hunt around the house until he finds his bicycle!

2. Which author would you most like to be?

Probably Clive Cussler. Writing books, collecting classic cars and looking for sunken ships sounds like a lot of fun.

3. Name the book that has most made you want to visit a place?

Probably the Antarctic or the Arctic so its either Target Five by Colin Forbes or Ice Station by Matthew Reilly

4. Which contemporary author will still be read in 100 years?

Alistair MacLean. Some of his books, HMS Ulysses, Where Eagles Dare, Fear is the Key, When Eight Bells Toll, are classic novels with great story telling.

Colour of Magic – Terry Pratchett or Ice Station – Matthew Reilly

William J. Caunitz who unfortunately is dead but wrote some great cop thrillers.

Discworld of course! Terry Pratchett’s fictional world. A flat round world that rests on the back of four elephants who in turn stand on the shell of a giant turtle swimming through space.

8. Name your favorite poet?

John Lennon

9. What’s the best non-fiction title you’ve read this year?

My life is completely fictional

10. Which author do you think is much better than his/her’s reputation?

Alistair MacLean. He had a reputation late in his career for writing crap books but even though the later books weren’t as good as his earlier books, they are still enjoyable reads and good ideas, if slightly silly.

Yes, I have accepted my place in life. I have realised that I am no longer the virile young stud who had girls laughing at me. I am old, well middle aged at least and I have bought my first EVER pair of brown trousers. I am sure when I was young and my mother was still buying me clothes I had a pair, but I didn’t choose to wear them and I was probably a little too young to understand what it means to wear a pair of brown.

Wearing brown trousers shows the world that you feel old, because you sure look it now. Wearing brown trousers is running up the white flag on life. Wearing brown trousers is something my dad does! Wearing brown trousers is something I be doing soon.

“The reading of all good books is indeed like a conversation with the noblest men of past centuries who were the authors of them, nay a carefully studied conversation, in which they reveal to us none but the best of their thoughts.” – Rene Descartes
