I read that years ago. I don't remember it being very good.


I'm reading Michael Stackpole's X-wing books right now. I've read them before, but they are entertaining.

Recently read Eragon because of the movie coming out. It's basically Star Wars: A New Hope set in Lord of the Rings.

Before that it was Matthew Stover's books Heroes Die and Blade of Tyshalle. Excellant Fantasy/SciFi mix.

I started reading this a few weeks ago, kinda got side tracked (nightfall), and now im going to have to re-start it, beacuse it gets very confusing.

Haven't read invisible monsters though, didn't look like something I'd enjoy. So I decided to read Choke again.

And Craig Clevenger's The Contortionist's handbook.

Mmhm.

Florent Loiacono - Ninja et Yamabushi

French book on ninjutsu and yamabushi ("mountain dwellers", guess you could call them "wizards") that I'm reading for an essay. But it's -really- interesting so I'm reading it for my own personal pleasure more than the actual text.

The Order of the Stick: No Cure for the Paladin Blues by Rich Burlew

If anyone in this forum is not reading OotS, you're sorely missing out.

I received/bought a few new books over the break that are currently in my to-be-read queue, assuming I can actually log out of GW to read. They are:

Everything Bad Is Good for You: How Today's Popular Culture Is Actually Making Us Smarter - Steven Johnson
Freakonomics: A Rogue Economist Explores the Hidden Side of Everything - Steven D. Levitt and Stephen J. Dubner
Throne of Jade - Naomi Novik
Black Powder War - Naomi Novik

Anyone else get any new books for Christmas?
