I know I'm biased, but I've always been fond of my own best-selling self-help book, "How to Improve Your Sex Life Using Only a Jar of Mayonaisse and a Watermelon" Only $29.95.

I'll admit it right now, I am a complete nerd.
"Perdido Street Station" and "The Scar" by China Mieville. Absolutely amazing blend of fantasy, horror, sci-fi and imagination. His writing style is my inspiration. I'm working on "Iron Council" now and its not disappointing. Highly recommended
I'm also a big fan of Frank Herbert's "Dune" books. Kinda boring at times but the female characters are SO cool. Ahead of its time.
