Im currently going on three books at the moment
The Templars by Pier Paul Reid
Stalingrad by Antony Beevor
Band of Brothers by Stephen Ambrose (had a helluva time finding a copy actually)
As for fiction though, I can't go past Wilbur Smith. Though I've read all his books, so I have to wait for a new one to come out.

Erm, read far to many books to really be able to say any specifics. BUT
Of course - Lord of the Rings Triology.
Also - am partial to Michael Crichton novels
I mainly read fantasy novels (like LOTR, David Eddings (basically a LOTR clone to be honest, but they are entertaining ), Robin Hob etc).
Also read thrillers etc, so have read Grisham, Crichton, Clancy, Fredric Forsythe, Ian Flemming, whilst my family start porning all their old thrillers on me for my books instead (ie, wilbur smth etc).
Have a semi library - cause as a kid i wasn't allowed to watch much TV or even own a computer - so i have an extensive collection of Starwars novels, Eddings (yep - still read them when i cannot choose anything else ), and approx 200+ other novels. As you might imagine, I was a true bookworm , However, i have NEVER read any dickens or shakespeare, or other cobweb classics. Too dull - fall asleep

I read almost anything, and usually read several books at a time. Right now I'm reading Jupiter by Ben Bova, The Portrait of Dorain Gray by Oscar Wilde, a collection of short stories by Philip K. Dick, and assorted poems by Robert Frost.

I read Band of Brothers by Stephen E Ambrose quite recently, it definitely ties up a lot of bits from the TV series. I used to go through Star Wars books at an incredible rate when I was younger.
I'm currently reading about 5 books concurrently, swapping the ones I'm reading each day!
They're:
On the Road by Jack Kerouac (beatnik travel story)
Neuromancer by William Gibson (This guy started the whole cyberpunk genre and was writing about a Matrix that human beings could plug into directly, way back in '84)
Penguin History of America (Name says it all)
Into the Wild by Jon Krakauer (The true story around the strange death of Chris McCandless)
and 'Are you Dave Gorman' by Dave Gorman (pretty feckin hilarious: one drunken bet, one very obsessed man, his hapless flatmate and 54 dave gormans)

@ssjgarretjax, did you read the Alan dean foster book, Splinter of the Minds Eye? A very good star wars book.
