Too short? Nice one

I was just settling into the rhythm of the series, and suddenly the book just stops, and I had to wait nearly a week for the next to arrive. Good news though - Silver Light is a nice fat 1200 Posted Image

Now reading "The Skystone" by Jack Whyte. It's book 1 of his Camulod Chronicles. I read the whole series about 5-6 years ago, so I figured it was time to give 'er another go. An interesting spin on the Arthurian legend.

Couldn't find my copy of Absolution Gap (though at least now I know the title Posted Image

) so rereading "Neverwhere" by Neil Gaiman instead...

Glad you liked it.

I'm ashamed to admit it but I'm reading Robert Jordan at the moment. What can I say? I was utterly bored. Oh well, The Eye of the World isn't as direly crap as some of his other ones.

@First Seg : Willaim Blake is the influence for the "Transformation " story in CoSaM.

@Tiste : Ah-Haa! "MOve and Fire" "I have Cheese" "MOnkey Tennis" etc.

Reading "Anvil of the World". Fast and entertaining. Pitched somewhere between SE and Pratchett.

Alice in Wonderland. Man, it's hard reading books on the Internet. Can't people be decent and use a darker background? All white really hurts after awhile.
I've never seen the movie Posted Image

I'm really enjoying the Da Vinci code. For starts it really impressed my brother when I started going on about PHI, cos he is a maths Genius. Secondly I love history, so reading about all this, whether true or not is pretty fascinating.
