The Frogs by Aristophanes. I started this a couple of months ago and was getting nowhere, but it's making much better sense after Tony Keen's talk on Greek theatre at Novacon and I'm getting far more out of it as a result. (Even 2000 years ago, people were complaining that young people weren't getting enough exercise and weren't as partiotic as their parents and that moral standards were in decline and the media was responsible...)

I'm also enjoying 'The Power of Three'. Thanks to those on my flist who kept recommending Diane Wynne Jones to me.
