Ahoy mate! For a summer reading adventure, we'd like to suggest the Killdevilhill.com Great Books challenge.

Here's how it works: for those of you who are new to the classics, you could strive to participate in an intelligent conversation in ten out of the over one-hundred forums found on the left-hand side of killevilhill.com or here. For those of you who have read a few Great Books, perhaps you could aim to participate in fifty forums. And for the experts, of which many of you are, perhaps you could strive to contribute constructively to every Great Books forum. And everyone should feel free to seek out a parallel spirit at the jollyroger.com penpals, where you can also participate in private forums. Enlightenment happens when you're following your passions, so have fun!

At any rate, below you'll find some of the books you'll encounter in the more popular Great Books forums:
