And I cannot say enough about The Design of Everyday Things, by Don Norman[2]. That book changed my life. I would consider it required reading, for anyone that develops anything that will be used by other humans.

Also, Glen Cook's Black Company books are awesome.

I still use stuff I picked up from Writing Solid Code.

Writing Solid Code[1], by Steve Maguire, was a seminal book in my education. I still use many of the techniques he mentioned.

I probably liked David Edding's Belgariad series, along with the Mallorean series, the most.

His Garret PI series are fun, but really kind of "filler."

I always thought that Rapid Development was better than Code Complete.

Also, Rapid Development, by McConnell[0]. I would say that it's even better than Code Complete.
