I'm DMing (at least until the middle of march...) an alt.history game. We're using the SilCORE rules. They are ok, but I'll definately be switching to something else for the next campaign. Anyway, I fell in love with dream pod 9's Gear Krieg setting, so I took the information from the handful...

We bought a copy for our son. Plays perfectly well on XP. No troubles whatsoever.

I realised I have outgrown my interest in Stephen King novels, so that whole stack I have is going to the local bookstore. Instead, I've gotten a copy of 'Good Omens' by Pratchett and Gaiman. Two of my favorite authors, working on the same book? This has been on my 'to read' list for some time.

I haven't been able to watch House as much as I'd like lately... So when I saw the title here and thought cryo-freezing... I was like whaaaa? Now they've frozen him? What, are they going to keep him like that till they can cure arrogance?

I only just discovered this contest. I'll give it a whirl, but 20 levels is a lot of work. I hope I can get done in time... EDIT: now that I think about it, I do have issues with Power Attack. So Najo, I just sent my entry with a redraft of the feat. It ought to be in your mailbox.

Hm...looks like I have a lot of reading now. My brother works for a roofing company, and they recently did a job for their boss, who also owns a bookstore. In order to get the other half of the store ready to rent out, part of the job involved crating out boxes of books. So my brother snags...

I tried to read 'No country...' I didn't get very far. Wasn't my cup of tea I think. Based on suggestions here, I looked at the library for a chris moore book and actually found one 'Practical demonkeeping.' That was a fun book, I'll definitely look for more of his works. Right now I'm down...

Still running through a slew of guides on directing that came in all at once to the local library, plus some photography books. My wife wants to get into nature photography, and helping her learn about cameras meshes well with my goals. P.S. I started this thread a while back. It was on...

Happy New Year everybody, hope your respective winter holidays went well for you all. A new year, a new month, and now for the new books... I have whittled my pile of reads down, having finished the traveller stuff, and having gotten through the Silhouette Core rules as well. So now I'm...

I'm going to expand on my current reads, since I realised that I wasn't reading only one... Okay, about a third of the way through 'The Eagle's Brood' by Jack Whyte. I'm concerned about the amount of time it covers. It started when Merlyn and Uther were 8 years old, and now they are in their...

Man, I love that book. I've read and re-read it many times. It makes a great fill-in for when I'm waiting for the library to get my next book to me.

Well, since its the middle of December and no one else seems willing to start it, I'll do it again this month. After jumping form book to book, I'm back to Jack Whyte, reading 'The Eagle's Brood.' Book 3 of the Camulod chronicles. Caius is dead, Varrus is old, and now Merlyn is telling the...

'The Straw Men' by Michael Marshall (I think that's his name, I dont have it in front of my atm...) I'm not very far in yet, but so far, it hasn't been intolerable.

At this rate, if all us 'non-quoted' jump aboard, it will...

2012, by Whitley Streiber. I read Streiber once way back in high school. Must be rose-colored glasses, cause these characters are...are... It's like a bad sci-fi channel movie. Man, this year I've been tearing through books. It's been a long time since I read this many.

Your description sounded interesting, so I looked it up. I haven't made it very far, but I imagine it will be a quick read. I'm also reading "Making Movies, A Guide to Independant Film-making" by John Russo. I and a few friends are trying to put together a production company, and I don't want...

My inner trekkie leapt up and threatened to strangle me if I didn't pick up 'I am Not Spock.' I guess I'll get 'I Am Spock' afterwards, and see how time changed his opinions. On the flip side, I picked up 'Magyck' the first book of the Septimus Heap trilogy. I wasn't impressed, but my wife...

I'll finish 'The Singing Sword' in the next day or two. I haven't decided yet what to pick up once I'm done. I dont want to try and read all nine volumes of the camulod chronicles in one go. I tend to burn out on a series when I do that. Maybe its time for 'Brother Odd' finally.

Sorry it took so long to get back, work tends to get in the way you know? Turns out we found it. Its an old paperback entitled 'Earth Has Been Found.' My dad loaned it to me eaons ago, and I never read it. I didn't know she had...

So we were talking earlier today, and my wife asks me if I recall a book she read. She thinks it was one of my books, but it doesn't sound like anything I've read. For the record, if it turns out we're looking for a movie, that's okay too (sounds like a movie to me). She says that the...
