The Tower, by Richard Martin Stern
This novel was the basis for The Towering Inferno. The main story is the same but there was more action included in the movie.

Leaving Bondi, by Robert G. Barrett (Book – 2000)-fiction A fun read by Robert Barrett, very Aussie; and it’s Sydney roots are very distinct in the writing style.
Dude, Where’s My Country, by Moore, Michael (Book – 2003)-non fiction Another excellent read by Michael Moore. Again he is not happy with Bush, and he goes through in detail why.
Catch 22 was one the strangest books I have read. The first chapter seems normal with a number of laughs.
I read this book with my son Kyle and we both loved it. I have seen both films based on the book, and it is interesting to compare how each of them has stuck to the original.
A brilliant read on how the Fawlty Towers series was developed.
Another good read from Daphne Du Maurier. I didn’t enjoy this as much as Jamacia Inn as it was set in a more recent period than her other work.
The best book I have read to date! Very short it only took 2 days to get through it, but what a tale.
An excellent read, lots of moor details similar to Wuthering Heights. The author paints the landscape that’s as dangerous as the infamous inn.
Published in 2001 by the time I got to read it its age was showing. Good background to the Bush/Gore election and to the movie Fahrenheit 9/11.
