Oh thank goodness, I can finally admit the last book I read was one of the Horus Heresy ones, safe in the knowledge that I'm not the only one! I'm also trudging through Neal Stephenson's Cryptonomicon:
In some ways a great book, and the explanation of the workings of the Enigma machine using only the gearing of Alan Turing's slightly dodgy bicycle is absolute genius, BUT blow me... It does go on a bit... Read the first two hundred pages, then stop and you'll love it.
