Has anyone ever read books by Steven Erikson?
These books have sucked me in big time, best writer in the Fantasy genre for a long long time. His books so far
Gardens of the Moon
Deadhouse Gates
Memories of Ice
House of Chains
All i need now is Macfarlane to pick up the figure licence and my world is complete :D
"The last hero" by Terry Pratchett, a graphic novel ( = short story with good pictures by P Kidby ) starring Cohen the Barbarian, Rincewind and Carrot Ironfounderson... It just lacks some witches (it would have been an all-stars book!)
Have just finished reading my copy of The Sun. :D
Reading 'Altered Carbon', its good IMO. Worth reading for any sci-fi fans
Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix.
Homecoming
Women's Lives in Medieval Europe: A Sourcebook
Pharohs of the Sun
I'm actually re-reading the former. And here everyone else is reading Harry Potter. I feel so ashamed.
:ninja:
The tears of a dictator: from Mobutu to Kabila - Guy Poppe
About Congo
'De verschrikkelijke man uit Säffle'
A old but still very good swedish detective by Sjöwall & Wahlöö.
(translated to dutch)
At the moment I'm reading "THE SUBTLE KNIFE" by Philip Pullman. It's bloody great!! It's the second part of the HIS DARK MATERIALS trilogy. I finished the first part in about 4 days, and that was mostly on the way to and from work, I could hardly bear to put it down. It's been a long time since I read books that are good as these. I think they're probably the best fantasy type books I've ever read, although I'm sure there'll be arguments over this. :lol:
It pisses on "Potter" from a great height!! :lol: :P :lol:
the media at war-susan l. caruthers.

I'm currently reading what I'm typing for this reply. :P
But the book I'm reading at the moment is the veteran.
reading-The Stand/Stephen King
again... this time "the complete and uncut"
I'm rereading The First Blast of the Trumpet Against the Monstrous Regiment of Women by Eric McCormack. It's a very good book. ;)
:ninja:

yeah.. whatever
on each reading my views and opinions of the content of this book so change...
if the last time you had to read it was in Year 9 I suggest you extend your reading to something other than study guides...

other books just prove how useless reading is...
I think he wants the "Books being read" on the thread.
