[Dec] What are you reading?

Don't know if it counts since it's a comic/graphic novel, but the Complete Bone collection. Fantastic book and realitvely cheap at it's size. If only it was in full color hardback for a few 'bones' more...

I'm always reading at least three books at a time. Just finished House of Leaves, by Mark Z. Danielewski (that's a mouthful) an incredible awesome book I've never really been able to explain properly, Dreams of Terror and Death, a volume containing the complete H.P. Lovecraft dream cycle, and Lord Demon, by the immortal Roger Zelazny. I've just started a second volume of Lovecraft, Bloodcurdling Tales of Horror and the Macabre, and Crucible: The Trial of Cyric the Mad, by Troy Denning, and am currently looking for something else.
 

I'm rereading my Discworld collection- I just finished The Light Fantastic and will eventually get around to starting Sourcery.

Demiurge out.
 


I started reading The Dragonbone Chair, Book 1 of Memory, Sorrow, and Thorn by Tad Williams a few days ago and I was struck by how... awkwardly the beginning is written. The prose is just kinda clumsy...

Then again, after several straight months of Erikson, Martin, and Mieville, I wonder who is to blame. :D
 

Well, I finished The Guns of the South. I wasn't really in the mood to read any of the books I had laying around, so I actually have been reading Sepulchrave's story hour here on the boards. All I can say is, "WOW!" It's brilliant. I am so jealous that I have never played in a game that is even close to being that good.

"How to Write Science Fiction and Fantasy" by Orson Scott Card.

That's right, someday soon you guys will be reading ME! (I hope :heh: )
 

I finally found a book that sparked my interest: THE ETCHED CITY by K. J. Bishop....just published last week.

It's her first novel....On the back cover it was described as a mixture of Stephen King's The Dark Tower series and China Mieville's Perdido Street Station, and I must say that I agree.

She's made herself a permanent fixture on my "must buy" list :D
