Snow Crash - Neal Stephenson
Bit of sci-fi/Cyberpunk. Can get a bit heavy going about 3/4 of the way in.. but still a cracker.
Neuromancer - William Gibson
More Cyberpunk.. but the first of a series..
Chickenhawk - Robert Mason
Autobiography of a Vietnam Helicopter Pilot. Regarded as one of the best books to come out of the Vietnam War.
The Hinge Factor - Erik Durschmied
Sub Titled 'How Chande and Stupidity Changed History'. A very good 'What If' book.. makes you think.
Generation Kill - Evan Wright
Rolling Stone journalist embedded with the US Marines in the Iraq War, made into a TV series by HBO.
That should start you off....
