[QUOTE]Originally posted by akb1979: [QB] My bookshelves? Well OK . . . The top shelf above my desk has an assortment of guide books on how to improve your writing (I'm trying to become an author) and the tri-model of the Enterprises. Oh and loads of spare space that was full of books but I've had to remove them to make space for those that are yet to come. The shelf below that has a mixture of sci-fi books. These include some Star Trek, including the recently released Section 31 books (not read yet so please don't spoil them for me). I also own all but one of the excellent Star Trek: New Frontier books. Also the Mars trilogy by Kim Stanley Robinson, the Foundation series (excluding the latter three by different authors), "Mars", "Return to Mars" and "Moonrise" by Ben Bova. I also have some Iain Banks books and Anne McCaffrey books as well as the first three Uplift books. The next shelf has 11 CD's for the PC and all of the Star Wars novels from "The Paradise Snare" to "Dark Tide II: Ruin". I also have "Balance Point" and "Edge of Victory II: Rebirth" with the two Agents of Chaos books and the first Edge of Victory to follow soon. The bottom shelf house my PC speakers, my lamp, a little clock, my letter openers, a white board for doodling on and a Newton's Cradle. The top shelf above my bed houses my eight Star Wars Models and the bottom one houses a collection of blue bottles (don't ask). The top shelf of the bookcase near my door has a fan and a chess set on it with a pot for pens for my other white board, pins for my notice board and a few ornaments bought on holidays over the years. The shelf below that has an assortment of books including a dictionary, thesaurus, dictionaries of idioms, abbreviations, slang, proverbs, cliches, catchphrases and synomyms and antonyms (oh and one or two novels - "The Precipice" by Ben Bova, "The Confederation Handbook" by Peter F. Hamilton and "The Collected Stories" by Arthur C Clarke). The bottom shelf of my book case near the door has the Star Trek technical manuals, space books, Star Wars guide books, some sci-fi novels and books on genetics, cloning and such stuff. Of those books I only have to read about 33! Oh and I have some Star Wars comics that have been stored away. Hope this all gives you a little insight to me and how I think! In case you hadn't noticed - I love and am hooked on books! :D [/QB][/QUOTE]
