The Culture books by Iain M Banks.
Many books, various points in time in the "history" of The Culture.
Warning: sci-fi

Some of the best writing ever.

Hi guys! I made a My Favorite Murder Coloring Book and a True Crime Coloring/Activity book. They're both available on Amazon Prime.


Murderino Coloring Book on amazon prime


Premeditated True Crime Activity Book on amazon prime
The 'look inside' feature isn't up yet, but you can see more, if you're interested, here


SSDGM and happy Saturday! :-)

Picture book vol 1

Picture book vol 2

I think they are referring to spiroglyphics: Spiroglyphics

Consider Phlebas, The Player of Games, and Use of Weapons

These three were written by Iain M. Banks and they're all sci-fi novels set in a far off future Earth where we live in a post-scarcity, stateless, classless, communist paradise. Banks uses the alien societies we encounter in the future as a means of criticing our actual, modern society today.

I absolutely love those novels. The Culture (what we now call the united humans of earth + their colonies) is fascinating. I won't spoil it for you. But go for it. Read until your eyes bleed.

Also, if you're looking for something fun and innocent. You can't go wrong with The Smurfs. I shit you not, I grew up on these so don't any of you dare insult them >.>

You'll want the comics, of course, not the cartoons.

I think that JAP Hyrule Graphics is USA/EU Arts & Artifacts but it is green. Hyrule Historia has the same name but it is brown. WTF Nintendo

Book is called Two Knotty Boys and I highly recommend it. Amazon

Heres one in stock :D

https://www.amazon.com/Color-Me-Pepe-Themed-Coloring/dp/154104861X/ref=sr_1_6?ie=UTF8&qid=1484090316&sr=8-6&keywords=pepe+meme

Here are some books I have and what I think of them...

The Connoisseur's Book of the Cigar by Zino Davidoff. Fun to read, lots of interesting info and thoughts. Also looks pretty cool.

The Tobacconist Handbook is probably the best informational book out there, at least that I've seen. It doesn't really look 'manly', but it's kinda cool IMO (editor's note: I have no idea what cool is).

Cigars 2-book set. Looks good on a coffee table, nice pictures. Info is hit-or-miss for quality.

The Cigar Companion. I picked this up cheap at a used book store. Got about what I paid for. Coffee table book? Not awful, not great. Source of info? Ehhh not great. Might fit the bill for your 'cheap' category though.

The Cigar Collection: Two Centuries of Cigar Writing is a very short book filled with poems and short essays/odes to cigars. It's not informational, but there is good writing in there. I enjoy it. It looks pretty cheap and isn't the highest-quality book.

I have no idea why the secondary market looks so crazy on these books on Amazon. I didn't pay anywhere near any of those prices for these books. Used book stores have been pretty good to me in terms of finding a couple very cheap - think the bargain bins.

Want to look really baller and have something cool to boot? Check out The Cigar Legend. It's a leather-bound book where you can document the cigars you've smoked and info about your cigar journey. It's super-pimp. /u/CigarNoise got me one, and it's classing up my library.

SSDGM, everyone! <3
Edit: broken links (yikes!)

If you like history, try the following.

The Making of the Atomic Bomb by Richard Rhodes. Utterly fascinating and extremely well written. It reads almost like a novel.

Peter the Great and Dreadnought by Robert Massie. Both excellent.

Citizens is a jaw-dropping revisionist history of the French Revolution by Simon Schama.

Night Soldiers is a superb "historical spy" novel set in Europe before and during WWII. This novel by Furst is credited with reinventing and reinvigorating the espionage genre. Think Graham Greene crossed with John le Carré.

If you like science fiction, try Hyperion by Dan Simmons. A mind-bending book that, at its core and rather incongruously, is a retelling of Canterbury Tales.

Sticking with science fiction, try anything by Iain M Banks; especially his Culture novels. You could start with Consider Phlebas, or Use of Weapons.


I have many many more suggestions if you want.


You may also like LibraryThing, a great social networking site for those who love books and like to catalogue and discuss their personal libraries. Look me up if you want. I'm "omaca" there too.

Unsurprisingly, the kindle version is more expensive on Amazon. Not sure how it works for a coloring book though. 1D chess marketing strategy. Might have to provide feedback.

My two favorite books about the Beatles are Peter Brown's The Love You Make and Roy Carr and Tony Tyler's The Beatles: An Illustrated Record (sorry, no copy on Powells.com). Brown's book has a bit more detail, but the Carr/Tyler volume is surprisingly well-written and goes pretty deep, plus it has full-size reproductions of all the album sleeves and a wealth of additional pictorial material as well. Definitely worth checking out.

The Bob Spitz Beatles bio is extraordinarily well-researched and offers numerous background facts I've never seen elsewhere, but may be a bit too detailed for someone who hasn't read that much about the band before.

Hope this helps!

Dang it, I searched for it a long time ago. That would make sense. I found it when reading the book. After searching some terms, here is the book:
https://www.amazon.com/Number-Freak-Language-Numbers-Revealed/dp/0399534598
It never mentions them directly, but iirc on number 50 the subtitle below the number contained 50 = (10-5)(10-0)

Great series of books. You do not need to read them in order; I read book 4 first, and it spoils nothing.

Supposedly, Amazon Prime wants to do a miniseries of this, or at least the first book, to the level of quality of Game of Thrones. I'll... believe it when I see it.

Anyway here are Amazon/Audible links! (Or hit up your local library, etc.)

1. Consider Phlebas paperback / Audible
   
   
2. The Player of Games paperback / Audible
   
   
3. Use of Weapons paperback / Audible
   
   
4. The State of the Art (collection of short stories) paperback / Audible
   
   
5. Excession (I read this one first, it's great) paperback / Audible
   
   
6. Inversions (sort-of a Culture book) paperback / Audible
   
   
7. Look to Windward paperback / Audible
   
   
8. Matter paperback / Audible
   
   
9. Surface Detail paperback / Audible
   
   
10. The Hydrogen Sonata (my favorite - Vyr Cossont is my hero) paperback / Audible
    
    I really like this stuff as space opera type stuff. It's usually not "hard" sci-fi like Asimov or even Philip K. Dick or anything, but I rather hope humanity heads in the direction of the Federation, and then ultimately to The Culture.
    
    Fun fact!! Elon Musk named the autonomous drone barge ships (the ones that SpaceX rockets land on) after some Culture ships. Namely the Of Course I Still Love You, and the Just Read The Instructions. I also rather like the full name of the ship Mistake Not… (Don't Google it! It's a spoiler!!!)

Another user found this link to get it cheaper than I got it 😅

you should read the culture series of novels by Ian Banks ...

Those look to be from the books: Art of the Song of Ice and Fire. Either volume 1 or volume 2

The Culture series, Book of the New Sun, Dune(FH's first 6), Ender's saga, The Forever War.

These are favorites of mine that I don't expect will make it on other lists:

Are you sure?

Spiroglyphics: Animals

Spiroglyphics: Music Icons

Spiroglyphics: Cities

Ok so not sure how helpful this will be but you mentioned your dad liked salt. Have you thought about buying him some truffle salt?

https://www.amazon.com/4oz-Glass-Shaker-Black-Truffle/dp/B00V3XWYFC/ref=sr_1_2?s=grocery&ie=UTF8&qid=1480628945&sr=1-2-spons&keywords=truffle+salt&psc=1

also my dad is a huge beatles fan as well. I got him a book about the beatles a few years ago. I cant find the exact one I got him but I found this on amazon

https://www.amazon.com/Beatles-Lyrics-Stories-Including-Handwritten/dp/0316247170/ref=sr_1_1?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1480629062&sr=1-1&keywords=beatles

Brother in law #1 - Maybe Firefly box set? It's a rad series.

https://www.amazon.com/Firefly-Complete-Nathan-Fillion/dp/B0000AQS0F/ref=sr_1_1?s=movies-tv&ie=UTF8&qid=1480629178&sr=1-1&keywords=firefly+dvd

For brother in law #2 maybe a year subscription to an audio book service like audible or something?

Oooh, so pretty! That's the kind of blending I'm always too lazy to get lol — you've definitely sold me on them. I can justify it when I think of 60 colors for $70 vs 7 pan pastels for the same price lol. Plus, I just got Pop Manga Mermaids, and these would look so good with that.

What do you use to sharpen yours with btw? I've seen some people say pencil sharpeners work and others say that you should stick with sandpaper. Also, do you remember if you paid around $70 for yours? Sometimes Amazon bumps the price up and down, don't want to pay more than I have to. :)

I have the Cigar Companion 2nd edition It's a bit dated now as we have so many new cigars and brands but it's something I can look through and get some know how from
