If you liked the Fall of Reach, I highely recommend reading "Ender's Game" by Orson Scott Card.
I'm almost certain the Fall of Reach was inspired by it.
I'm reading "The Pit and The Pendulum" by Edgar Allen Poe. Brilliant stuff - once you get your head around the complicated language, you'll appreciate the frighteningly good short stories.
So far I've read three.
The most fascinating so far was "The Descent into Maelstrom," which tells the story of a young fisherman being dragged into a whirlpool - reflecting on his thoughts and fears as he's about to be crushed by the waves.
