September 2008: What are you reading?

[Desdichado]

1) Gardens of the Moon - I've been kinda slowly trudging through this for a number of weeks now.

2) Star Wars Legacy trade paperbacks. Trying to get caught up.

3) Some Jim Butcher Dresden Files books; I usually drop everything and read these when they come in at the library, so I can turn them back in real quick. Just got Dead Beat the other day.

4) Some how-to novel writing books.

5) The Pathfinder Gazeteer (I hate reading pdfs, so I'm seriously lagging behind here. I really need to pick up the fuller setting book in print if I'm to have any hope of getting through it.)

 

[The Grumpy Celt]

The Magus, Celestial Intelligencer: A complete system of occult philosophy, by Francis Barrett.

Are We Having Fun Yet, by William Sanders

Just finished listening to Of Sorcerers and Man, by Michael D.C. Drout.

 

[Shade]

I just finished a couple of Planet Stories, Elak of Atlantis and The Secret of Sinharat. I'm about to start on a third, The Ginger Star.

 

[Knightfall]

Just finished reading Mistborn by Brandon Sanderson.

Excellent! Excellent! Excellent!

And I just began reading The Black Company. I bought the compiled trilogy.

I still haven't finished Gardens of the Moon, yet. I must find the time to get back to that one.

Now on to re-reading the works of Chretien de Troyes.

 

[Studio69]

Presumed Innocent by Scott Turow.

 

[GreyWizard77]

I recently finished Harry Potter 4 and 5 (Order of the Phoenix and Half-Blood Prince). I'm really looking forward to the ending. Hopefully I'll be able to find a decent price for it.

In the meantime, I'm reading Gary Gygax's Saga of Old City. It's a lot more sword n sorcery then what I expected. Not too bad, though.

 

[EricNoah]

I just started Anathem, Neal Stephenson's new book.

How is it?

 

[DreadPirateMurphy]

Perdido Street Station by China Mieville. Finally getting around to it after reading the spread in Dragon wayback when.

Also, Embracing Defeat: Japan in the Wake of World War II by John Dower. It is very good.

 

[Krug]

Red Sails under Red Skies by Scott Lynch, sequel to The Lies of Locke Lamora. Somewhere in the middle right now and it's getting very meandering, with lots of repetition of elements in the first book.
