Bryson's book is wonderful. Listened to the abridged version on tape. Instantly bought two copies of the book - one for me and one for my dad.
I'm just getting into the Vorkosigan books. I read Young Miles, and am now reading Miles, Mystery and Mayhem while listening to the unabridged version of Shards of Honor. Is weird reading about adult Elena, then getting into the car and listening to her birth.
I loved Monstrous Regiment until the last 20 pages, but it's still one of my favorites. There are some Discworld books that I can't even read - the witches and Rincewind, mostly - but this one had a good story with his best characters (the Guard and William de Worde) sprinkled in for flavor.
