Library of the Soul: A Peter White Mystery
1.  Library of the Soul: A Peter White Mystery by Simon Buck
The list author says:
  "A new author - very entertaining story, could it be true? This is the most recent book I've read, only been out a few weeks.  Buy it now!"

Foucault's Pendulum
2.  Foucault's Pendulum by Umberto Eco
The list author says:
  "This is a veritable cornucopia of conspiracy theories, probably only exceeded by Illuminatus,  Eco can tell a story well.  Once you get past the first chapter it picks up."
£6.99   Used & New from: £0.01
3.8 out of 5 stars  See all reviews (63 customer reviews)

The Illuminatus!: Trilogy
3.  The Illuminatus!: Trilogy by Robert Shea
The list author says:
  "I first read this trilogy 25 years ago and it made me laugh.  It's still selling strong (here combined into one volume of all 3 parts).  This is the perfect antidote to Dan Brown ;-)"
£7.69   Used & New from: £1.10

The Holy Blood And The Holy Grail
4.  The Holy Blood And The Holy Grail by Richard Leigh
The list author says:
  "I have to include this.  It was the first 'serious' conspiracy book I ever read.  Almost made me want to go to Rennes le Chateau.  Also got me interested in the Cathars.  Mr Brown's inspiration?"
Used & New from: £0.01

Robert Ludlum: The Bourne Trilogy: The Bourne Identity, The Bourne Supremacy, The Bourne Ultimatum
5.  Robert Ludlum: The Bourne Trilogy: The Bourne Identity, The Bourne Supremacy, The Bourne Ultimatum by Robert Ludlum
The list author says:
  "All three of the Jason Bourne trilogy in one volume.  If you liked the films then you should read the original books."
£11.04   Used & New from: £2.47

The Da Vinci Code
6.  The Da Vinci Code by Dan Brown
The list author says:
  "I don't actually like his writing, formulaic, predictable, poorly researched.  But outselling everything!  A literary agent I met said it's a book for non-readers, which is what publishers want."
Used & New from: £0.01

The Da Vinci Hoax: Exposing the Errors in "the Da Vinci Code": Exposing the Errors in "the Da Vinci Code": Exposing the Errors in "the Da Vinci Code"
7.  The Da Vinci Hoax: Exposing the Errors in "the Da Vinci Code": Exposing the Errors in "the Da Vinci Code": Exposing the Errors in "the Da Vinci Code" by Carl Olson
The list author says:
  "Unpromising start, but actually develops into a creditable analysis of all that's wrong with Mr. Brown's book (above)"
£9.65   Used & New from: £0.01
2.7 out of 5 stars  See all reviews (3 customer reviews)

Angels And Demons
8.  Angels And Demons by Dan Brown
The list author says:
  "Pre-dating his successful da vinci code, this is another conspiracy-ridden novel. Suffering from all the same style (sic) and research (lack) problems, it is even more ridiculous and incredible."
£7.99   Used & New from: £0.01
3.8 out of 5 stars  See all reviews (493 customer reviews) | 1 customer discussion

Soylent Green [DVD]
9.  Soylent Green [DVD] DVD ~ Charlton Heston
The list author says:
  "This was probably the earliest environmentally based science fiction film.  Made in 1973 the special effects are non-existent. Set in 2022, not so far away now, it looks uncomfortably precognitive."
£20.00   Used & New from: £7.47
4.4 out of 5 stars  See all reviews (43 customer reviews)

Cypher [DVD] [2003]
10.  Cypher [DVD] [2003] DVD ~ Jeremy Northam
The list author says:
  "Industrial conspiracy rather than political/religious.  But this is a well made film, well acted, and with interesting plot twists (not all of which are predictable)."
£4.40   Used & New from: £0.34
4.4 out of 5 stars  See all reviews (29 customer reviews)

Cube Trilogy - Cube / Cube 2 / Cube Zero [DVD]
11.  Cube Trilogy - Cube / Cube 2 / Cube Zero [DVD] DVD ~ Cube
The list author says:
  "I liked Cube, although it's a bit gruesome. Hypercube (Cube 2) was a bit too sequelly for me (if you see what I mean).  I liked Cube zero too, an interesting way of revisiting the story."
Used & New from: £14.99

The X Files Movie [1998] [DVD]
12.  The X Files Movie [1998] [DVD] DVD ~ David Duchovny
The list author says:
  "X-Files - the movie, not necessarily the pinnacle of the storylines explored in the series, but if you don't already know the series an easy/cheaper way to 'get' it"
£3.76   Used & New from: £0.01
4.2 out of 5 stars  See all reviews (37 customer reviews) | 1 customer discussion

Florentine Histories: (New translation) Introduction by Harvey Mansfield, Jr.
13.  Florentine Histories: (New translation) Introduction by Harvey Mansfield, Jr. by Niccolò Machiavelli
The list author says:
  "Machiavelli - the master of conspiracies and spin, no wonder he's required reading for both Tories and New Labour"
£19.63   Used & New from: £6.83
