Irvine Welsh's Filth is one of the funniest books I've ever read. His book of short stories The Acid House is good too. Also his book 'Marabou Stork'.
At the moment I'm reading a book called 'The Prison House' by an author named John King, the same guy that wrote 'The Football Factory'.
Will Self is an extremely good author too.

Read Mezz Mezzrow's 'Really The Blues'

Jack Black: 'You Cant Win'
(a great, true, autobiographical tale about an underworld legend and an opium addict)

Anne Rice... "The Vampire Lestat"... wonderful reading and you will seriously only want to put it down for a few minutes and go right back to it... like you need a break from the intensity in his life. She has a beautiful way of writing.
Also, James Howe "the watcher". the story has two sides, and can be confusing to explain if you've never read it. If you like the end of a book the best... you'll love this one

I am reading "What are you reading now?" a thread on rollitup.org started by Gygax1974 with the notes from several other top marijuana growers. I do recommend it, it's a wonderful read.

I'd also highly recommend that people read a copy of Stephen Hawking's 'A Brief History Of Time.'

Or George Orwell's 1984... also Aldous Huxley's 'A Brave New World'. What about tolstoy, war and peace... who could forget that? Metamorphosis by fFranz Kafka, the only one of his books that made any real sense. Maybe too young when I read them... I'll have to look into them again.

I used to love King. Still do. He's the greatest writer in the world. His ability for fiction is quite simply amazing. I am in envy whenever i read one of his books. I read The Stand in 3 days straight. Just couldn't put that fucker down.
I never really liked Koontz. Maybe he's different now,but in the early days i found his books a little too repetitive. Ever read any Masterton?

Sorry fdd', Graham Masterton, wrote a novel called Manitou.
What about good old Jimmy Herbert? The pariah, Sepulchre, Creed?
Good thing about books like these are that they are easy reading.

Do you not see the facts in fiction? Fiction can be just as educational as fact.
