Books
Daemon
I am a big fan of every Daniel Suarez book. Probably my favorite author. I would recommend you all of them:
- Change Agent
- Influx
- Kill Decision
- Freedom(tm)
But start with Daemon. You will not regret it.
Flash Boys
After reading this book, you will have a different perspective on the stock market. I can promise you that.
Jeff Aiken Series
Mark Russinovich, Chief Technology Officer of Microsoft, wrote a great fictional Series. The protagonist, a cyber security expert named Jeff Aiken faces several challenges in the books: Rogue Code, Trojan Horse, Zero Day.
The Phoenix Project
Written as a novel, this is a gem of a book for everyone working in IT.
Learn how to recognize problems that happen in IT organizations; how these problems jeopardize nearly every commitment the business makes in Development, IT Operations, and Information Security; and how DevOps techniques can fix the problem to help the business win.
The Goal: A process of Ongoing improvement
After reading the Phoenix project, I purchased the Goal and I was fascinated by the theory of constraints.
Every year for Christmas, I take some time off of the newsletter and I write one of the issues without links to Groovy content. This year, I link to books which I think you may enjoy.
