    Here is my list thus far:

    Jean, it is because of your opinion on Black House that I decided to go ahead and read it, even though I didn't particularly love The Talisman. I'm glad, because it was infinitely better IMO.

    Oh yeah!!! I liked "Talisman", but BH can barely be called a "sequel" to me. It's a novel unto itself except for the character of Jack Sawyer. Plus, I liked BH 10x more than Talisman.

    Good call!!!

    1. The House of Silk
    2. Doctor Who - The Silent Stars Go By (reading)
    3. Artemis Fowl (re-reading)
    4. A Game of Thrones (reading)
    5. The Memoirs of Sherlock Holmes (reading)

    Nice to have a short story collection in the mix. The main novel I'm focused on atm is GoT, which I'm really enjoying, but it's nice to have the occasional break from such an EPIC fantasy and read a quick 30 page Sherlock Holmes story from time to time.
