    Pixel Juice - Jeff Noon

    A line from one of his short stories:

    "In the first shop they bought a packet of dogseed, because Doreen had always wanted to grow her own dog."

    He's pure genius.

    That Pixel Juice compendium seems oddly entertaining brother.

    I'll be taking a look at it

    From Russia with Love - Ian Fleming. Its book 5 of Fleming's 14 book series (not including the short stories).

    Decided to read the originals after the new Casino Royale movie. I'm happy to announce that the books are far better than the movies. I mean did anyone see Moonraker?

    The book was great tho'. More of a real-life scenario. Something that could of actually happened. Not some twisted fantasy like the mov's where it's the same play over and over.

    I read his Star Wars stuff when I was way young. Of course, I don't do that anymore. Unless it involves Karen Traviss. Or Aaron Allston. Perhaps Troy Denning. Maybe even Timothy Zahn.

    I can't forget Drew Karpyshyn either.

    The Skeleton Man- Jim Kelly.
    I tend to binge read...when I stumble across a good book I'll go back and get everything by that author.
    That's how I gobbled up all the Dresden Files books by Jim Butcher and the Inspector Rebus books by Ian Rankin.

    My librarians know me by name, I can't get to sleep without reading first (and no, I don't nod off in the library).

    Nabokov- His Life In Part by Andrew Field.

    Found the hardback in a second-hand bookshop about a year ago and I'm only getting around to reading it now.

    A bit annoying actually. It's the first part of a 2 part biography, with the 2nd part being His Work In Part. I'd rather be reading the 2nd part cos it goes in depth into the literature.

    Also re-reading Neil Gaiman's Sandman comics which rawk the fuck out.
