Hey how is Pirate Latitudes? I read Eaters of the Dead by Crichton, I thought it was good, just the same basic story of the 13th Warrior and a different version of Beowulf.Originally Posted by what
Pirate Latitudes Michael Crichton... still trying to finish Pride and Prejudice and Zombies...
The Tardis (Time And Relative Dimension(s) In Space) duh!
Duh...i forgot who it was, thought it was Ruthful and Nando for some reason.Hahah I know I'm one of the peeps that was talking to you about it!
I recommend ANYTHING by Crichton. So far all of the books I have read of his were awesome. Almost done with them all, too.
"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."
Pretty good so far. It's the first "pirate" story I've read so I doubt I'll be disappointed. It seems to fit in with his earlier(?) writing style, feels like Five Patients which was excellent!
I also give WICKED a

I also recommend Wicked, though it is not for the squeamish or very young.

Currently reading Barry Lyndon by William Makepeace Thackeray.
heather - lovely bones is fab, you will love it
ricky, is that a book or a comic? (messages from the island?)
It's a book. Not really a book like a "novel", but magazine snippets, interviews, set photographs, etc.

The Tardis (Time And Relative Dimension(s) In Space) duh!
Just starting, To the Stars by Robert A. Heinlein. I have no clue as to what it is about... just found it in a box in my basement...
I have no faith in human perfectability. I think that human exertion will have no appreciable effect upon humanity. Man is now only more active - not more happy - nor more wise, than he was 6000 years ago. - Edgar Allan Poe
Bunch together a group of people deliberately chosen for strong religious feelings, and you have a practical guarantee of dark morbidities expressed in crime, perversion, and insanity. - H.P. Lovecraft
I just finished the Mists of Avalon series by Marion Zimmer Bradley.
Awesome!
I highly recommend it to anyone whose imagination is captured by the Arthur legends.
I read Mists of Avalon and the others when they first came out. I loved them, and passed them on to my daughter, who also loved them. A GREAT series!

interesting, I will check them out.
