Nice list of books, Matt. Some of them got transferred to my Amazon wish list.
You might like “Old Man’s War” by John Scalzi: http://tinyurl.com/nolp3r
Reminded me in some places of “Ender’s Game” (http://tinyurl.com/mmqcre). It’s about a human society far in the future fighting several alien races for survival (which boils down to number of planets each race can colonize), and the fighting army is formed of old people (who get recycled into new bodies fit to fight with) – of course their motivation being exactly that – regaining their lost youth.

The Truth Machine and The Unincorporated Man sound especially intriguing; I’m a sucker for scary futurist stories.

Just finished both Beat the Reaper and Gone Tommorrow. Loved them both. Beat the Reaper has quite a bit of sarcasm and dry humor – always a good combination. Gone Tomorrow got a little slow at the end, but still very good.

Highly recommend The Girl With the Dragon Tattoo, by Stieg Larsson, and Water for Elephants by Sara Gruen. The White Tiger by Aravind Adiga is a good one those who want a glimpse into what the Indians think about being entrepreneurs and running America by manning the call/help lines for our businesses.
