[November] What are you reading?

[Arkhandus]

Just finished The Book of Lost Tales I a week or two ago, starting on The Book of Lost Tales II this week. Also just read Brightest Day: Green Lantern Corps: The Weaponer.

Still can't find at least one or two of the Brightest Day compilations that I'm missing, though, especially after Atomic Comics closed up shop earlier this fall. Not sure I'll find anyplace to buy the "Atomic Robo and the Shadow from Beyond Time" TPB whenever it comes out (if it hasn't already). And now another gamestore in my area has closed, so it's getting harder to find anyplace to buy RPG stuff too (Barnes & Noble pretty much just has 4E D&D books and a few Pathfinder or Shadowrun books).

I finished From Hell (excellent) and have now started A Fire Upon the Deep by Vernor Vinge.

Finished A Dance of Blades (Shadowdance Trilogy, Book 2) by David Dalglish and started A Dance of Death (Shadowdance Trilogy, Book 3) by David Dalglish.

Been a while going through a book this quickly.

How are those books? The price is right on 'em.

I just finished Pendragon, a 'historical' based view in many ways of King Arthur, and now I'm reading the Doom of Camelot, several short stories discussing why and how the land feel.

Good stuff.

Interesting characters, plots are not bad and books are wonderful reads. David Dalglish does characters really well and spins a good story. I have enjoyed his books as he deals with people and not heroes.

I just started reading the German version of 'The One Ring' rpg - a mighty heavy and beautiful book, I might add.

... have now started A Fire Upon the Deep by Vernor Vinge.

I really enjoyed that one, once I got into it. It was pretty tough at the start, IIRC. I can also recommend "A Deepness in the Sky" by the same author, which is set in the same universe.

I've now finished "The Books of the South" by Glen Cook (good, but not as good as the first Black Company trilogy), and the latest Pathfinder. Have just started "The Gathering Storm" by Jordan and Sanderson, and will be reading the "Advanced Player's Guide" for Pathfinder.

Next up will be "Renegade's Magic" by Robin Hobb (not really looking forward to it, as I'm only reading it to finish out the trilogy), and the "GameMastery Guide" for Pathfinder. I'm hoping to finish those, and also "Great Expectations" by the end of the year.

The Confession by John Grisham

I am enjoying it, but it has been tough to get into. Vinge really just tosses the reader into the deep end and it's easy to get lost trying to piece things together to see what the hell is going on. In a good way, though. I definitely plan on reading Deepness at some point.

Just finished the Erevis Cale trilogy, now reading the next trilogy. Nice, light D&D reading....likely next after that is some non-fiction sitting on my shelves, not sure which yet.

Finished A Dance of Death (Shadowdance Trilogy, Book 3) by David Dalglish and now started Theft of Blades by Michael Sullivan.
