The Book thread

[Littlemissmetal]

I agree with you, Eddings is awesome but I did think Sparhawk (much as I love the books) is a bit of a formula regurgitation. Still loved all the stuff between him and the horse though - comedy gold

My fave Gemmel is White Wolf and I've just re-read it, Swords of Night and Day and Winter Warriors too.

For some reason the ending of legend always makes me want to cry - such a bloody wuss

[CrapyMike]

obviously i would never cry but i know what you mean

After wanting to see what all the hysteria was, i read Twilight. It took me two days-i really enjoyed it. The day i finished it, i watched the film. Needless to say, as always, the film didn't give the book justice.

Reading/nearly finished The Subtle Knife (Philip Pullman).
Didn't enjoy it first time I read it cause I thought Will was a moody little dick. Enjoying it much more this time though .

Next up is The Brothers Karamzov (Fyodor Dostoevsky).

The book I am currently reading is called American Abolitionists: The Growth of a Dissenting Minority

it is, as you can imagine, thrilling.

As thrilling as the book I am reading? "Hopf Algebras and Their Actions on Rings". A rollercoaster of a ride from bialgebras to duality and hopf algebras arising as quantum groups...

Its un-put-downable!

I never really liked Will in that book either, though I did find it "easier" to read once Lyra/Lara? was back in it
Cant even remember her name I used to love those books

Currently reading Kevin J Anderson's Saga of the Seven Suns on book 3 I think

Just reading Philip K. Dick's book 'Time Out Of Joint' at the moment. Very interesting, and intriguing!

I was pleasantly surprised with the Twilight series too. Not the best books I've ever read but not half as bad as I was expecting either.

The film is atrocious though my friend and I spent most of it laughing at the wrong moments

I'm currently reading False Gods of the Horus Heresy it's pretty damned good ^_^.

Pratchett is the one author I always buy when it comes out in hardback.

Haven't got "Nation" though.

[Littlemissmetal]

I'm expanding my Pratchett collection at the moment, we're looking to move house so most of my Pratchett books have been relegated to Shed-dom at the bottom of the garden in boxes.

Can I be arsed lifting all the stuff off of the boxes? Nope

Solution - buy all the ones I dont have - win
