There are many more, history is endlessly fascinating to me.

i enjoy fiction as well, some of my favorites being William Gibson, especially his sprawl trilogy. Arthur Miller's plays, esp. death of a salesman, all my sons and the crucible. Shakespeare's histories and tragedies (the romances and comedies don't really do it for me) like the "henriad" are great too, Richard Duke of York (father of the ultimate villain Richard III) is just too badass, as he ruminates thus while on his way to depose Henry VI:

'from Ireland thus comes York to claim his right,
And pluck the crown from feeble Henry's head:
Ring, bells, aloud; burn, bonfires, clear and bright,
To entertain great England's lawful king.
Ah! sancta majestas, who would not buy thee dear?
Let them obey that know not how to rule;
This hand was made to handle naught but gold.
I cannot give due action to my words,
Except a sword or scepter balance it.'

yeah, he's a total badass.
