I loved reading "Masters of Doom." It's an easy read, and a fascinating story about a handful of people of had a remarkable influence on an entire industry.

Also, I learned by reading it that Carmack and Romero created Commander Keen (somehow I'd never made that connection with their later games). Commander Keen was my Mario. Perhaps it was more than that. It introduced me to shareware, which led me to BBSs, and then the Internet.
