im reading the sin city comics, really great comics. i recomend them
Greg Rucka - Shooting At Midnight.
Very involving story, I quite like it. One of his best. Funny yet entirely too serious. That and I have a strange affliction for any novel that manages to incorporate drug use. I don't know why.
Exile's Return, Raymond Feist
One of the best fantasy authors. (Above Jordan and the likes).
I'm glad you agree :) I hope you've read all of the Riftwar and Serpentwar sagas too?Quote:

Of Misty's books, Phoenix and Ashes, The Gates of Sleep, and The Serpent's Shadow (The Elemental Masters series) are based off fairy tales, set in England around the close of the 19th century and beginning decades of the 20th. It's actually pretty interesting to see the basic story of Cinderella rewritten into the First World War. Of course, I'm a fan of most of her books. ;)
The Bitterbynde trilogy by Cecelia Dart Thornton is also good
OMG I had to read like this book called my side of the mountain. Gosh that kid has to much parties with animals> :cool:
I have just started The Case of the Missing Nutrinos by John Gribbin. Looks to be an interesting read, and I liked the last book of his that I had read.

I just finished The Silence In Heaven by Peter Lord-Wolfe and Neverwhere by Neil Gaiman. The Silence in Heaven was pretty good but the end just kinda stopped. I was pretty dissapointed in that. Neverwhere was a great book.
Read Stardust, American Gods and Good Omens right now.Quote:

Dave Duncan - Impossible Odds
Not a bad book. Kind of weird, though... he's a very conventional writer. Gives you a plot and tells you to follow it. Very stereotypical characters, for the most part.
The Wizard's Ward - Deborah Hale
A fairly decent book, but the ending was a bit...well, the author basically ended it with a sex scene. I was a bit discontent with that, since it wasn't much of an actual ending.
I have actually started Good Omens and it is pretty good so far. I have Stardust and that will probably be the next book I read.Quote:

Finally finished my book review of The 9/11 Commission Report. A little fucked atm after sitting for 8 hours and doing it. But glad it's over. YaYness.
Read "Ruled Britannia" by Harry Turtledove, my favourite author.
reading the newest issue of gamepro if you call that reading :)
also reading some ebooks about the crazyest stories about UFO,Myths,Wars,Aliens and Human History .
So, how long until this bum gets the boot? :disagree:
Reread:
In Enemy Hands - David Weber

Good he's been banned.
Anyway... just fineshed reading Lord of Chaos by Robert Jordan, started on Crown of swords, 4 more books of the series to read before Book 11 comes out next month.

you actually read all that hollywood gossip dont you find that boring.
I have read the TV Guide this week... :) that's about it!
Myst: The Book of Atrus
-Rand and Robyn Miller, David Wingrove.
I have just read The Goblet of Fire..the movie trailer got me excited.
Reading Demonic Males-Richard Wrangham and Dale Peterson. Seems nice so far. About apes and the origins of human violence. Hopefully will not turn out to be bullshit. Can only wait and see. Has some good stuff about Rwanda and Burundi.
Wait, back up. There are Myst books? and I thought I new everything. :PQuote:

Three Myst books were written, taking place before the first game. The Book of Atrus covers Atrus's life, from birth to sealing away Gehn in Riven. The Book of Ti'Ana covers the life of Anna, grandmother to Atrus, from the time she first comes to D'ni to the fall of that empire. The Book of D'ni covers a part of the reconstruction, when Atrus begins to rebuild D'ni (this book, unlike the other two, is between Riven and Exile, after Catherine's rescue but before Atrus begins writing Releeshahn) with the help of people from other ages, and uncovers a book that the ancient D'ni had locked away that links to another age, Terahnee. All of this is basically just from the beginning or mentioned in the games, so I haven't actually given away any of the plot points, but they're pretty good. I just took a look, too, and two more books are planned.Quote:

I'm currently reading my own book ! :) yes, that's right: I'm writing a book !
I have played for too long AD&D and my character will now become a legend. Remember the name!
Just read Scarlet Stockings by Alcott. Veery nice. I'm developing a liking for 'the gayety of foreign society'.
dingy is right.
foreigners are gay.
i will endure the double post ridicule to announce that this post is the first time i've had the 1,000th post in any topic! w00t!
Hehe. Good for you DDave. But that's the thing. These classical writers never envisioned the wide and unnecessary use of the word 'gay' and use it ever so often. Bloody classics.
Reading Gogol's The Calash. Trying my head at Russian classics.
