Just finished recently: Old Man's War by John Sclazi, Orphanage by Robert Buettner, Homeward Bound by Harry Turtledove, and I tried really hard to read A Crowning Mercy by Bernard Cornwell & Susanna Kells but just couldn't.

I'm about to start reading Incubus Dreams by Laurell K. Hamilton today, if I can finish reading relevant sections of the FAR (http://www.arnet.gov/far/) without crumbling to dust in from the intense pleasure and excitement. If I can't get into Hamilton immediately, as I sometimes can't, I'll probably start reading Crown of Slaves by Eric Flint & David Weber.

Hi Everyone,

Just finished the Lyonesse Series for the upteenth time by Jack Vance (surprisingly my favourite of his) and have just started up Cugel's Saga also by Jack Vance.

A Storm of Swords (G.R.R. Martin's Song of Ice and Fire, Part III) - will be continued soon after a little pause.

When I get a whiff that A Feast for Crows is on its way, I'm going to go through these again. Unfortunately, that does not seem to be anytime soon.

Best Regards
Herremann the Wise

The Eisenhorn trilogy by Dan Abnett, set in the Warhammer 40K universe. I've been utterly surprised at how good these books are. I'm going out and buying all theb Gaunt's Ghosts novels as soon as i can.

I just got done reading tons of Ron E Howard stuff :Conan the Cimmerian 1&2, and then Solomon Kane.

My favorites by him are Opie the Barbarian and Solomon Cunningham

if you want a good read in the Warhammer Fantasy Universe check out Witchhunter by CL Werner. I've been enjoying it a lot.

I've been reading England: An Elegy by Roger Scruton, which makes some good points about the English common law. Also a book about copyright called No Trespassing by Eva Hemmungs-Wirten, and an old pulp sf novellette The Rim of Space by (I think) Bertram Chandler, which is very entertaining.

Beneath the Moors and Darker Places by Brian Lumley

 

[Hand of Evil]

Eberron novel: Marked for Death, the loast mark book 1 by Matt Forbeck

Just finished the Two Swords by R. A. Salvatore. Good action scenes but man, this guy really needs to step away from the saving the people at the last minute sort of deal going on. Also no resolution and set up for future novels. I thought for a second I was reading a Hardy Boy's Novel. "Gee Jimmy, it's too bad we didn't get a chance to investigate that old tower but we'll do that next week!"
