What are you reading? (April 2005)

[Cthulhu's Librarian]

Just started Assassination Vacation by Sarah Vowell.

 

[Greylock]

'K, finished American Gods. It was as good as everyone said. I've had my nose buried in campaign settings for the last few weeks, so it really hit the spot.

Next up, an oldy, Mythago Wood by R.Holdenstock. First chapter has me hooked. (thankee kindly, Rich).

One of my favorite fantasy novels EVER! Very different take on the "Haunted Woods" idea. (BTW, it's Holdstock if anyone else is interested) If you like that one, he wrote a few more novels that take place in the same woods, but different characters and different concepts explored. Lavondyss and The Hollowing are two of them. (and you're welcome)

Sea of Silver Light, fourth and final book in Tad Williams Otherland

Great fun, though a little longwinded. One of my favourite authors .

And he's a great guy in person as well. I really enjoyed his Shadowmarch book, both online and in print.

Nice to see some love for the Warhammer novels. I picked one up awhile ago--Gaunt's Ghosts, I believe--not expecting much, but was pleasantly surprised.

Currently reading Gardens of the Moon, and remain about three years behind on my Asimovs and Analogs.

Divorce Busting & Divorce Remedy by Michele Weiner Davis

I just can't seem to fit my head around a good sci-fi/fantasy book right now.

 

[sniffles]

Just finished "The Knight" by Gene Wolfe, and am now making my way through the 'Narn i Hin Hurin' in JRR Tolkien's "The Lays of Beleriand".

Finished Eisenhorn....truly excellent by the way. I went on half.com and bought about 20 Warhammer 40K and Warhammer Fantasy books.

Since then I read Space Wolf and Ragnar's Claw by William King (excellent as well), Death's Messenger (good, but annoying cliffhanger at the end...wait for the sequel before reading), and now I'm reading Lord of the Night (20 pages in...nice and dark).

I'll probably be reading Black Library books for quite some time

I just finished reading for the second time Miles Vorkosigan series. EXCELLENT science fiction.

Will pick up some of the praised books in this thread as soon as I finish with my Quantum Physics exam (sounds scary, uh? )

The mass-market of Midnight Tides is out?! Must order now!

Anyone know when The Bonehunters is coming out?
