Message: <blockquote data-quote="Desdichado" data-source="post: 9854604" data-attributes="member: 2205">Not much, yet, sadly. I read 106 books in 2025, so far in 2026 I haven't logged a single one. Because I got back into Star Wars: Old Republic, and it's been sucking up too much of my free time. That said, I want to quickly finish several books that I've been reading before I have some work travel next week, including the last of the Dark Waters trilogy by Graham McNeill, an Arkham Horror/Lovecraft pastiche trilogy of novels, the last novel of the Heirs of Ash Eberron series from back in the 3e era, and the 3e Monster Manual II, which is part of a trawl that I'm doing of all of the official 3e monster books (obviously, I'm still early days in that trawl.)Like I said, I have some work travel coming up, and I've already got some extra books in my backpack and on my Kindle for that trip, but I'm not sure what I'm going to read yet. The Del Rey Solomon Kane collection, no doubt, and some Pathfinder 1e setting books to (re)read. On my shortlist of books that I've already gotten off the shelf and ready to go I've got the four James Silke Horned Helmet novels, the original Timothy Zahn Heir to the Empire trilogy. I've read the first two of the first of those series many years ago, but I couldn't find a copy of the fourth volume at a reasonable price for years, so I quit. I've now got all four thanks to Thriftbooks, and holy cow, I've had that first book since 1989 or 1990, and it's a long time coming. I need to reread the ones I've already read and read for the first time the last two. For the Thrawn books, I've read them before too; I somehow ended up with an extra copy when I ordered a set for my son, so I've been meaning to reread them for a while too.After that we'll see what I decide to read, but I've probably for a reread of Dracula on tap soon, since my daughter bought me a really nice leatherbound copy that I haven't read yet. In older gaming books, which I've enjoyed reading, I'm going through the 3e monster books, as I said. Fiend Folio would be next, then Monster Manual's III-V. I also got stalled reading Curse of the Crimson Throne after the first three books, so I need to go read the second three. I've read that years ago too, but after that is Second Darkness, which I have not ever read, and which was not ever compiled into a single book. And I'll probably be running a heavily modified Freeport Trilogy soon, so I'll probably have to reread that again soon too.</blockquote>
