Thats the ones! Dragonbone Chair has really picked up its pace in the last few chapters - once he encounters the Sithi caught in the tree the adventure gets going - I'll definately read the whole set.Originally Posted by Rjeso
Chris - those references were cool - they'd completely passed me by, apart from Delirium - shes sooo Tori!
Two more books on the shelf I have yet to read.
In Digitized Remorse
Well, get on that, dude!
you're solid gold // i'll see you in hell

In Digitized Remorse

Fine, fine, fine. In that case, get on the reading, already!

Currently reading all of the following:
THE YIDDISH POLICEMEN'S UNION by Michael Chabon
ANANSI BOYS by Neil Gaiman - I read AMERICAN GODS about a month ago and quite enjoyed it, but so far I like this book even better.
and a re-read of ON THE ROAD by Jack Kerouac, that keeps getting interrupted by books I'm reading for the first time.
"...that Siren which called and sang and promised so much and gave, after all, so little." ~ Ray Bradbury
Finished Cormac McCarthy's The Road.
Beautiful book. Highly recommend it.
Now started on a re-read of Stephen Donaldson's 'Chronicles of Thomas Covenant, the Unbeliever' - Book 1 - Lord Foul's Bane.
I am currently listening to The Gunslinger audio book read by Stephen King as I am recording them digitally to put them to CD.
nice selections Patrick!
I'm reading 'and Hell Followed with Them' a 4 novella collection. I've read the one by Tim Lebbon, so far. It's a lot like 28 days later, but what it lacks in originality, makes up in creepy storytelling. I still haven't shaken that one out of my head yet.
I'm currently reading "The Tao Of War" by Wang Chen and translated by Ralph D. Sawyer
It's basically a philosophy of war, aimed at harm reduction that applies the principals and theory of the Tao Te Ching
“As I never tire of saying, heat is not the antithesis of light but rather the source of it.” ~ Christopher Hitchens
I just finished "Cell" by Stephen King this AM...not sure what to read next...
XIX
"See the TURTLE of enormous girth,
On his shell he holds the earth.
If you want to run and play,
Come along the BEAM today."
NFA JJG 42-95
I am about to start The Scarlet Letter by Nathanel Hawthorne.
Last night I finished Lightning by Dean Koontz. *eh*
Started In the Flesh by Clive Barker, which I guess is essentially Books of Blood #5. It's pretty good so far.
In Digitized Remorse
Have you read Imajica by Barker yet?
It's on the "to read" bookshelf, along with Cabal, Weaveworld (read most of it but I'm gonna start over), Galilee.

From A Buick 8. I rushed through it when I got it for Christmas and then sorta forgot I had it. It's a much better story than I had remembered.
People love frozen yogurt. I don't know what to tell you.
I've given up on Dragonbone Chair - I just can't get into it. Might wait until the Gunslinger group re-read instead of starting something new...I've gotten into a game on my ds which is distracting me from most things lately
From a Buick 8 i've tried to read like 5 times, I just can't get into it.
"So many vows. They make you swear and swear. Defend the King, obey the King, obey your father, protect the innocent, defend the weak. But what if your father despises the King? What if the King massacres the innocent? It's too much. No matter what you do, you're forsaking one vow or another."
hope you'll be luckier this time, it is a good book
Ask not what bears can do for you, but what you can do for bears. (razz)
When one is in agreement with bears one is always correct. (mae)
bears are back!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I've started the five dialogues of Plato.
My favorite bands can kick your favorite bands' asses.
The horizon is right and motionless like the EKG of a dying woman.
Reading Cormac McCarthy's 'No Country for Old Men' - Very damn good!
(Got my 'Chronicles of Thomas Covenant, the Unbeliever' on the back-burner for a couple of days - then I'll get back to it)
I'm still reading The Count of Monte Cristo.
I'm really liking it so far. I wish that it wouldn't have sat on my bookshelf for so long before I finally picked it up.
A true firewasp ninja would never wear such a ridiculous sweater.
There's logic in nonsense.
Give me all the bacon and eggs you have.
do you mean, by Dumas? I love it. Thank you for reminding, I haven't re-read it in about fifteen years. Did you read Les Trois Mousquetaires?

I just started Wizard and Glass. I haven't read this book in years and so far I'm enjoying it. I wish my library had this on cd. I'm getting spoiled to having books play while I'm doing stuff around the house and riding in the car.
