[April] What you're reading now

[Eben]

Stonehenge by Bernard Cornwell. I has the same twist of history that was in his Warlord chronicles. Also read his Sharpe novels: the exploits of a soldier in the British army during the Napoleonic wars.

 

[Hand of Evil]

Star of Erengrad by Neil McIntosh a Warhammer fantasy novel.

I'm about half way through Dreams of Steel by Glen Cook. I'm really enjoying the Black Company books. After this. Who knows. I just got 5 boxes of sci-fi books from my grandfather's basement. That should last me for a looong time.

I finished up the first book in the new Robin Hobb trilogy and will be seeking out the second soon.

I also just finished "Manifold: Origin" by Stephen Baxter. A very satisfying end (?) to his Manifold trilogy, very good "hard" sci-fi.

Also have been wandering through "Everyday Life in Roman and Anglo-Saxon Times" -- an older book that focuses mostly on Roman life as it pertained to the British Isles, has good illustrations.

I just started Harry Harrison's "The Hammer and the Cross" which is a kind of alternate historical novel focusing on Norse attacks on England -- we'll see if I stick with it.

 

[WisdomLikeSilence]

Neil Gaiman's "American Gods"

I'm about halfway through, and *wow*.

I am currently reading "Daughter of the Drow" by Elaine Cunningham. I will probably read the next book in the series, "Tangled Webs" next. I tried reading Glen Cook's Black Company but could not get into it.
