Daggers - yes, I've read The Fourth Hand. I've read everything he's written so far You should check out Until I Find You, I think you'd really dig it

Awesome Liisa! I love those books and am so grateful to Christopher for making so much of his father's work available to nerds like us. There is no such thing as too much Middle Earth stuff for me. It's fascinating to see how the history developed and how much Tolkien really put into it.

I hope you enjoy them this time. I look forward to hearing your thoughts on them.

[Darkthoughts]

ooohhhh, I worship Bill Bryson, Lisa!! His 'Down Under' was so funny and true I cried with laughter and wept a bit for I longed so sorely back to Australia. A very good choice of reading!

He's awesome isn't he! It's funny that the book that's made me feel most proud of being British, is written by an American.
I think it's probably the most accurate of description of Britain and it's people you could get. I'm so buying EVERYTHING else he's written!
