Starting on Philip Pullman's The Golden Compass... Heard so much about the trilogy I really have to take a look. :D

Good stuff but not for kids. I won't say why though...

I am re-reading JV Jones THe Book of Words Trilogy and then following up with All Tommorows Parties by William Gibson
 

I picked up William Gibson's new book (Pattern Recognition) and two other sci fi books last night (Diamond Age by Neal Stephenson and Manifold: Time by Stephen Baxter). Also borrowed the first book in the latest Robbin Hobb fantasy series.
 

Reading the second book of Robin Hobb's Liveship trilogy, because I heard here that it makes the second book of the third trilogy (whose name escapes me now) make more sense. Enjoying it immensely.

In my opinion, the Demon Wars trilogy is much better than the stuff that's come out since, you should definitely give it a shot at some point.

My brother feels the same way about series, he read a few chapters of Transcendence then gave up and gave it back. He liked the first three books and well enough but doesn't like the rest.

I seem to have a higher crap threshhold than most people so I'll refrain from commenting.

I actually heard about that before...sad sad thing, and the cause seems to be because so many people complained about the NJO, that they're shortening it. Oh well, I still like it. As for the book, guess I'll have to grab it tommorrow...must get my NJO fix...

Stupid punks. Gabe of PA mention that he got a lot of email from people who like the series, which makes me wonder if it's just a bunch of whiny people who must have everything their way. Makes me wonder if the sales are significantly different.
 




Wrestling my way through Anne Rice's Vampire Chronicles. Currently, I'm at The Vampire Lestat, with The Queen of the Damned and The Tale of the Body Thief lined up next. After I've finished them, it'll be Starship Troopers and Eaters of the Dead, by Heinlein and Crichton, respectively.
