Good readings

[Alythezon]

Ok i am going on a trip and it is an 8.5 hour flight. Well to pass the time i want to read a book. ARe there any suggested books to read for blackjack or can i just find everything i need to know online. I dont know if there is like a must read book like super system for poker. Any suggestions would be great. Maybe a little synopsis of the book or what it teaches would be lovely as well.
Thanks later all.

Friend,

For such a long flight why not go for *very entertaining education*? Get "The Counter" by the one and only, Kevin Blackwood.

Save the heavy reading for another time

Blackjack Bluebook II by Renzey: good to learn from, easy reading
Blackjack Blueprint by Blaine: a tutorial for BS and Hi/Lo, plus advanced topics
Blackjack for Blood by Carlson: good to learn from, interesting anecdotes
Blackbelt in Blackjack by Snyder: a complete textbook on BJ
Professional Blackjack by Wong: the single, best source for Hi/Lo count, lots of tables
Million Dollar Blackjack by Uston: interesting read, both technical and anecdotal

Eventually you should read them all, but 3 will do for starters.
