I can't say Ive heard of any of those. I should look into it. I am a sci fi person, I enjoy that too, how do you find western reading? Sounds quite interesting.
I can imagine that situation, especially considering it would take so long to read them all!
It's good to hear you find fiction beneficial too, and that's what I hope to gain from reading it as I don't want it to feel pointless other than just a good story. I'll keep that in mind, I don't like reading multiple at one time unless they are informative books or for short reads.
