Reading List: February 2011

The Holy Bible, New International Version
The Holy Bible, New King James Version
Dark Voyage, by Alan Furst
The Koran for Dummies, by Sohaib Sultan
Storm Prey, by John Sandford

The Poisonwood Bible, by Barbara Kingsolver
The View from Castle Rock, by Alice Munro
The Night Crew, by John Sandford

There is some good stuff in this group. Alice Munro is one of the best short-story writers around, and this collection contains some prime stuff. Hilary Mantel won the Man Booker prize for Wolf Hall, an historical novel set in the reign of King Henry VIII. Beginning in Archaeology is a classic, aimed at those who want to pursue a career in archaeology, even if it might be an amateur career.
