[QUOTE="Richards, post: 8467786, member: 508"] I finished [i]The Mask of Loki[/i] and it turns out I [I]had [/I]read it before. It was eminently forgettable and I had apparently done just that, because I didn't remember a thing about it as I read through it...except for one bit involving King Guy and his Crusaders in the Holy Lands, drinking from a small pool of water that had been contaminated on purpose with the carcass of a dead sheep. Other than that one scene, none of it was familiar and it was easily my least favorite novel that Roger Zelazny ever had a hand in. I do not recommend it. So next up, as a palate cleanser, I'm going with [i]Hull Zero Three[/i] by Greg Bear, a science fiction novel about a man who wakes up early on a generation ship, traveling to an unknown destination - unknown to him at least, as he awakens with no memory of who he is or how he got there. So there will be mysteries unfolding as he learns about the environment he wakes up in...sounds interesting. Johnathan [/QUOTE]
