    On to book three of The Belgariad.

    Only not quite. I couldn't figure out why there were so many titles in the bibliography of the Danish translation and why they differed so much from the English version.

    Turns out there's ten books in the Danish version. They're entertaining enough but my to read list just got five books longer. I was hoping to finish the series by next week!

    memba this? That opening used to get me. All the sounds of anguish and screaming. And then the way he says "the Wanderer". Properly freaked me out at the time.



    Blizzard's cinematics have always been amazing.

    I remember being blown away by the teaser for Warcraft 3 where an infernal falls from the sky and kill an orc and human who were fighting to the death.

    Stopped half way into that trailer.

    I'd advise anyone not to watch the trailer since at the half way point they reveal something crucial. Just go watch the film, we all know it'll be awesome.

    So I am all caught up on Seanan McGuire's October Daye books, and IMO this series rates alongside Dresden and Rivers of London in terms of urban fantasy. Absolutely superb character writing.

    Also today I finished the first book of McGuire's Incryptid series - Discount Armageddon and this seems like a more light take on urban fantasy which is still pretty entertaining.

    Check out her "Indexing" series too, if you haven't already: two books about a team of operatives responsible for dealing with fairy tale narratives taking over the real world. Great stuff, and a really unique twist on the urban fantasy genre. I do still need to get into the two series you mentioned.


    Indexing is on my radar but thanks for the reco.

    October Daye has a real jolt for a start. I was not expecting the first book of a series to take such a sharp turn, and it really threw me. But McGuire really takes her characters seriously and invests in long term planning. Frankly this series deserves more attention.


    Damn it people. I don't have time to read all these recommendations!

    Edit oh dear. There's 12 October Daye books...

    I think you need therapy and probably some kind of medical treatment, Mal. How boring is your daily existence that you find it imperative to jump on this forum every few weeks and pick a fight with people?

    Where do you get off telling me to 'tone it down'? Fuck you man, I stood up for you when all of the staff was against you. I gave you the 'Wheelchairs of War' in defiance of censorship. In short, I backed you when you said unpopular thihgs. Do better.
