Try The Lies of Locke Lamora by Scott Lynch, another great fantasy book.

Roger Penrose's 'The Road to Reality'.
"It provides nothing less than a comprehensive account of the physical universe and the essentials of its underlying mathematical theory"
I'm hoping to actually finish it this year. Maybe.

I wish you all the best. [:D] Tbh i don´t even understand the popular / non mathematical based books about the universe. [8|]
I just finished John Costello´s "The Pacific War 1941-1945". Not certain yet, what will follow: a) "Geschichte der USA" (History of the USA) by Heideking / Mauch (a historical overview from the beginning until the 21. century; don´t know if there´s a edition in an other language than german.), or b) some easy stuff to relax, like Stephen Carter or J. Ellroy.
