[Feb] What are you reading now?

[Lurks-no-More]

In the middle of "Against a Dark Background" by Iain M. Banks
Rereading the most interesting bits of "Revelation Space" by Alistair Reynolds and "Lord of the Rings".
Wishing I had time to go back to reading "Perdido Street Station".

'Foucalt's Pendulum', Umberto Eco. Having some difficulty getting into it, the writing is a bit flowery for me.

Read this two years ago on my free trip to Hawaii. Either the guy who wrote the ad copy on the back or I missed something, because it wasn't quite what I was led to expect, but it's good once you get going. Actually are some nice seeds for campaigns or perhaps a secret society group in your game. I'd say more, but don't want to spoil your fun.

After putting Conan to a rest for while, I've been reading 3001 by Arthur C. Clarke. It seems like a quick read, so it should be back to Conan very soon.

Just finished Stackpole's When Dragons Rage. Oh my God, what a downbeat ending. Thankfully, there's one more book and the Norrington Prophecy points a way out of this. I think; I hope.

Now starting on Edgerton's The Queen's Necklace.

As a last gasp for February I have just finished Sharpe's Fortress by Bernard Cornwell. My favourite of the Sharpe books so far.

I have already started Deathstalker by Simon R Green, although the chances of me finishing it by the end of the month are thin indeed

Just finished Desolation Island by Patrick O'Brian. It's the fifth in the Aubrey-Maturin series and they've all been great reads so far.

I was planning on borrowing my brother's copies of the Sharpe novels this weekend.

What you thought about Baudalino..

Oh... well, it's pretty good so far (especially the first chapter, hehe).

 

[AuroraGyps]

Valdemar plus...

I'm back home after my visit to my parents and I'm reading Lackey's Mage Storms trilogy (halfway through book 2). While I was away, and after I was out of Valdemar books, I also read the Greyhawk novel Tomb of Horrors, re-read White Plume Mountain (gotta love Escalla), and Dragonlance novel Murder in Tarsis.

 

[Sulimo]

Umm...I just started Book of Fours - one of the Buffy tie-ins. Which is OK so far...though I'm only about 40 pages in.

I'm also reading Legacy of Alexander by Brian Bosworth which is pretty cool.

Should we start a new thread for March?
