Yeah, the Conan stuff is good. I enjoyed the short story collection you mentioned greatly, but I've had a harder time getting into the novellas; I think I just wasn't in a Conan state of mind when I first tried reading the book.
Deathly Hallows was a satisfying end to the Potter series; I think you'll like it.
One of these days I really want to read the Halo books; I've heard good things about them, and they seem like quick, fun reads.
I might pick up Spook Country after I get through this list; I enjoyed Pattern Recognition and it seems this is more of the same (at least in terms of setting).
I read Sundiver ages ago. It's very much a freshman book (I think it was Brin's first published novel) but worth reading if you're into Brin. Have you read Startide Rising?
