I did like Aldous Huxley's Brave New World, but I have yet to read any of his other works. I really want to read Crome Yellow, and The Doors of Perception.

The first is titled "Captain Trips" and takes place over nineteen days, with the escape and spread of a human-made biological weapon, a superflu (influenza) virus known formally as "Project Blue" but most commonly as "Captain Trips" (among some other colloquialisms). The epidemic leads directly to the death of an estimated 99.4% of the world's human population.

That's a short Wikipedia summary of the beginning of the story without giving anything away.

That sounds really interesting, actually. Next time I go to the library, I'll totally look for it (:

Brave New World is my favorite book of all time! The Doors of Perception was amazing.
