Mortalis is the only Salvatore novel my local library carries.

Jeez, well... in the last three months I have read:

Empire by Gore Vidal
From Russia to USSR and Beyond by Vaillant / Richards
Japanese: Step by Step by Gene Nishi
Lord of the Rings, The by Tolkien
No Spin Zone, The by Bill O'Reilly
Shorter Science and Civilisation in China, The by Needham
Treason by Ann Coulter
United We Stand by Ross Perot
U.S.A. Since 1945, The by Ganley / Lyons / Sewall
Why We Fight by Bill Bennett

I reread all of The Lord of the Rings (including The Hobbit) this past summer for the fourth time so I don't know if it should be included in the list or not.

Right now I am reading The Rise and Fall of the Third Reich by William Shirer.

I haven't read much lately, but what I have read is the first 3 books of Wheel of Time.
Waiting for book 4 and 5, have to order them, so it takes a week or so to get them =/
Too bad they only last 3 days per book

I'm currently reading a few books by Japanese author 'Haruki Murakami' under advice of a good friend of my brother's.

[Trivium \m/]

I have never read any books but I would like to read a book about the ancient Chinese Kingdoms during the 3 kingdoms era. There is only one problem, I can't find it anywhere. You guys have any suggestions where I could find it?

[ronclon]

Mortalis is one of his better ones, I thought. Rather thoroughly put together, but it links to the three books before it to a certain extent that if you don't read them, you're sort of lost as to why this is happening or that is happening. It plays a bit off the Black Plague epidemic from England.

I just finished reading Kushiel's Dart and Kushiel's Chosen, then I picked up Tad William's Otherland: City of Golden Shadow. Currently, I am working on Otherland: River of Blue Fire. I went to Chapters the other day to get the first Harry Potter book, but they were all sold out. And I'm not wandering into that bloody kid's section...

I'm now reading Discworld : the light fantastic (it is part 2 from the 24 books) but it's a very cool book ,

it's a fantasy book but it make's laugh so many times because it's soooo funny so if I where you.....just read the damn book

Just read and wrote a 2000 word Journal on "A Clockwork Orange". Quite a fascinating book, especially how the author incorporated his own special language for it.
