Jolt Awards: лучшие книги

Многие, наверное, слышали о такой книжно номинации, как Jolt Award. Многие известные книги являются лауреатами этой премии, что дает +100 500 к ЧСВ автора и примерно столько же к количеству скачанных экземпляров в торрентах.

Но сегодня речь пойдет не о том, кто, где и как достает книги, а о том, что стоит почитать, если на досуге вдруг появится пара десятков часов свободного времени, а люимая книга Мейера уже прочитана до дыр.

Тем более, буквально вчера Dr.Dobbs Journal, который выдает эти призы, опубликовали лучшие книги прошлого (2012-го) года. Я прошелся по списку номинантов и победителей этой премии за всю ее историю (полтора десятка лет) и получил вот такой список.
