Probably something by Philip K Dick.

How is that edition of "On War"? I have heard it's not the full version. But should I buy it anyway?

This

I would go with maybe a Terry Pratchett book or something similar to liven it up, alternatively maybe you should give modern literature a go.

As for your political inclinations, I would go with picking up some John Locke since you seem to like that old stuff.

OP here I forgot about this thread. So basically you guys are saying that
