    Umm...Sir, it's DAN Brown. You should've read Angels and Demons first, it's kind of a prequel to The Da Vinci Code.

    Ahh sorry. I knew there was something wrong with the name

    I hadn't heard about him before I read the da vinci code and now I have bought the other 3 books in the serie.
    I like the way he writes

    World of Warcraft... my friend convinced me... bt what started as a skeptic sense of wary enjoyment has turned into the biggest time-waster of all... well, uh, time. I'm getting better. But that's what all addicts say.

    Just finished "Dragons of a Fallen Sun" in the Dragonlance series by Margaret Weis and Tracy Hickman, currently working on the next book.

    I'm a huge fan of the Dragonlance series, especially the ones done by Margaret and Tracy. Gotta love Tasslehoff Burrfoot.

    If you like fantasy and haven't read one of this series (where have you been hiding?)
    I recommend it.

    I couldn't get past book 3 of that series... it just bored me after a while... and waaaay too many characters...

    Finnish edition of Yves Deninbourgs autobiography about Soichiro Honda.
    Also Intohimon Karma (Karma of Passion) by publisher Orienta, a collection of ghost stories translated from english to finnish by a man living in Japan, which were originally translated to english from japanese by Lafcadio Hearn. Yes, confusing isn�t it?
