[August] What are you reading?

[Rabelais]

Red Thunder by John Varley

Great, breezy summer reading. Fun, not at all realistic. Like a Boy's own trip to Mars.

Afterwards,

The Incredible Book of Vatican Facts and Papal Curiosities by Nino Lo Bello

 

[Chaos Drake]

The Rule of Four. So far it's better than the Da Vinci Code.

I'm about half way through The Gunslinger (first part of Stephen King's Dark Tower series). I was expecting it to be a bit pants, but so far, I'm hooked.

 

[PieAndDragon]

The King's War by C.V. WedgeWood, about the English Civil War. Dry, but interesting.

In preperation of Gen Con this week, I took the whole week off and have just finished the Tawny Man trilogy. I enjoyed it more than the Liveship Traders, but not as much as the first trilogy, the Fareers. Good stuff all around though.

Olive, how's Iron Council going? My wife finished it last night, and loved it about as much as I did; I'm interested in seeing other folks' reactions.

Finished The Scar. Very good, not as good as Perdido but still very enjoyable.

Started Neal Stephenson's Cryptonomicon. Very funny so far.

 

[Tetsubo]

The Morality Maze: An Introduction to Moral Ecology by Neil M. Daniels

 

[WayneLigon]

SFBC's collection Dead in Dixie, which contains the first three Sookie Stackhouse novels by Charlaine Harris.

Young Wizards, first five Nita/Kit books by Diane Duane.

It's going great. It's a much less convoluted read than any of his previous work, which I think helps. I'm not sure he got to the same sublime level of the grotesque that he did earlier though. I've got about 80 pages to go, so I'll post my final reactions when it's over.
