I think there's no such thing as 'must-have books for Kindle', because everyone's idea of terrific books are so different.

*MY* mistake! TPB has NOT YET BEEN RELEASED in Kindle format. Phoenix Press is working on that and "The Crystal Empire" by ElNeil and already has released "The American Zone" (a sequel to TPB, second in the timeline), "Tom Paine Maru" (about fifth in the timeline), "The Venus Belt" (another TPB sequel and third in the timeline) and "Hope", which is NOT part of the TPB series.

You may want to consider tagging this thread in some way that warns readers that it will be slow to load if they are using a dial-up or other slow internet connection. All these image files will take forever on a sub-par connection.

I want to create a simple way for the other users to be in contact with other autors, titles and genres.

I want to introduce more books that other users like, to share. And another user can come and read another genre and like(or dislike too).

I like to see what other ones with other type of "good" book, come and share the book that like with other users, because we are going to have other users coming here to see this titles and take interest in some of these ones, buy and be in contact with other genres.

It's good to both sides. Who shares and who pick one.

Seven Pillars of Wisdom by T.E. Lawrence

http://www.amazon.com/PILLARS-WISDOM...2103447&sr=1-2

Also available as a free eBook, but Amazon has versions from $.99 to $2.35

And, might I ask, what makes a "must have" for the Kindle different than a "must have" for a Sony, a Nook or an Astak?

Anywho....None of those would be on my list, except maybe "The Stand" which I have in paper and already read two or three times....
