I've been reading tons.
I recommend Monster Island by David Wellington and the two sequels Nation and Planet.
World War Z by Max Brooks ( son of Mel )
Demon Seed by Dean Koontz
Day by Day Armageddon by J.L. Bourne ( really cool as it is written in diary form )
I just got one of these: [ame]http://www.amazon.com/Mammoth-Book-Modern-Ghost-Stories/dp/0786719605/ref=pd_bbs_sr_1?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1200866938&sr=8-1p[/ame]
Except mine appears to be a new edition, as none of the authors listed on that cover are in this volume.
