    Good book.

    I have to read The Iliad and Heart of Darkness for next week.

    Though for next weeks lecture on The Iliad we get to watch Troy.

    Lucifer's Dragon by Jon Courtenay Grimwood

    So far it's just like reading another gibson novel, both in tone and subject.
    The plot is his own though, so that's all right, and as I like Neuromancer and the rest, I quite like this.

    Currently halfway through Colditz - The definitive history by Henry Chancellor.

    Apparently, it's "Based on the Acclaimed Channel Four Series"

    I have just this minute finished, A series of Unfortunate Events, by Lemony Snickett.

    The triolgy included;

    The bad beginning
    The reptile room
    The wide window


    Although it obviously written for teenagers, I adore the style he writes in. Quite patronising if it was intended for adults, I guess, but amusing all the same. I'm sure my 14yr old brother will love these books as much as me.

    I have to get hold of The Miserable Mill.
