I just finished re-reading Centennial, the book about Colorado, by James Michener.

Since he always writes his historical novels beginning with the Earth forming and then the dinosaurs, to the coming of man, down to cowboys and the dust bowl, it was a good long read.

Because the Book focused so much on the plains and prairie aspect of eastern Colorado and the need for water, it had some pretty insightful commentary about the ecology of the region that was ahead of its time.

I recently read The Zanzibar Chest by Aidan Hartley (very highly recommended!).

I also just finished reading Conversation in the Cathedral by Vargas Llosa for the second time....a rather difficult but very worthwhile novel. I had to read it twice to really get the hang of it.

Now reading Forbidden Faith: The Secret History of Gnosticism.
