User:Agentseven/My Most Important Books

The Tower Treasure by Franklin W. Dixon got me absolutely hooked on reading when I was about six years old.
Foundation by Isaac Asimov got me hooked on science fiction, which broadened my mind to much larger vistas.
The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy by Douglas Adams can be enjoyed on its own as pure science fiction satire, but has a slight, inoffensive yet undeniable atheist slant, which I didn't even realize helped me come to an Understanding.
A Brief History of Time by Stephen Hawking instantiated my love of nonfiction reading and made me realize that the known universe was even more mystical than the (described) supernatural one.
The 48 Laws of Power by Robert Greene opened my eyes to how little the world values what I value, which I find of immense importance.
The Demon-Haunted World by Carl Sagan is unquestionably the most important book I have ever read. If you don't consider any other book in this list, consider this one.
