I'm concentrating on Charlie Wilson's War right now.
Books I'd recommend:
Economics in One Lesson - Hazlitt
Our Enemy, The State - Albert Jay Nock
Free to Choose - Milton & Rose Friedman
For those of you with children:
Your Teacher Said What?! - Joe and Blake Kernen
I have this one and On Killing too.
Contact! and Rapid Fire! are good but they are non-fiction.
