	NYCitygurl posted: Right now I'm reading Good Omens by Gaimon and Pratchet (sp?) Neil Gaiman and Terry Pratchett They're both pretty damn good. I was rereading Pratchett's Lords and Ladies earlier. Still hilarious. "Shouldn't you have a horse?" "I was waylaid by bandits." "But it says on your card that you're a 'Finest Swordsman'." "I was outnumbered." "How many of them were there?" "Three million." -----signature----- BeTS Best Author '08 NEW Eleven Summers - http://boards.theforce.net/a/b1/29657584 Lightning and Diamonds - http://boards.theforce.net/a/b1/29251762 Into The Shining Day - http://boards.theforce.net/a/b1/29224914

	Yeah, it would be nice if I could spell Someone on these boards said it was funny so I picked it up, but I'm not really impressed. I think Douglas ADams could have done a better job with it. And I read Stardust by Gaimon with a book club, and I really didn't enjoy it. Eventually I'll give Pratchett's Discworld a try, but I don't have very high hopes. -----signature----- "Not till the moon falls. Not till the world ends."

	I am now reading the Black Stallion series. It is a good book. I still think Star Wars is the best! -----signature----- I've been waiting for you, Obi-Wan. We meey again, at last.

	You know I read those Black Stallion books back when I was 12 because the movies looked interesting (even though to this day I've never seen them). Even then I was casting about for reading material and soon fell upon my first Stephen King experience with The Shining. I literally consumed that book in the span of 3 days. -----signature----- Satan's not in a guitar pick, he's inside all of us. In here, in your hearts.

	Borders was having a big sale (3 for 2 on sci-fi/fantasy + 20% off everything for students) so I got: Evergence 2 + 3 Orphans of Earth 3 (that's right Excellence ) Magician - never read it, but played and loved the Krondor PC game and heard it's excellent, so I'm trying that out Neuromancer Gates of the Moon (I think...whatever the first Malazan book is). So many other tempting offers there...I saw a girl walk in and buy all of David Eddings' books.

Make sure to get the follow ups to it, Silverthorn/Darkness at Sethanon. There is also another set that details the world on the other side of the rift, Servant of the Empire/Daughter of the Empire/Mistress of the Empire, these are just as good as the first saga IMO. -----signature----- ~Sith Loyalist~ "Dirty Deeds Done Dirt Cheap" "Someday, someone will best me.

	Finished Republic Commando this morning, very good read. Then picked up and burned all the way through the novelization for V for Vendetta, which was decent enough. I'll probably see that in theatres. -----signature----- Ever wonder what happened during the clone wars?

	MarcusP2, tell me what you think of Heirs of Earth, please. The first two books are exemplar, but the third was . . . horrific doesn't begin to describe it. The Evergence purchase was excellent, wait till you read the last pages! -----signature----- The Brits gave the world Doctor Who We owe them

	Taking a break from V For Vendetta, I picked up Batman: Year One. After watching Batman Begins, I kept hearing that the story of it was inspired by several different comics of the franchise. So I decided to dig deep and try to find some of these inspirations, and where they got into this "new" story of Batman for the movies. -----signature----- GamePlasma: http://www.gameplasma.com Devils: 21-13-3 Lets Go Devils!!

	I absoultly love those Darkness books by Turtledove! It is so great because as you are reading if you watch the history channel as the narrator is speaking then you are reading exactly what he is saying. Only instead of planes and tanks its dragons and Bemethos. -----signature----- Master of Ringthane I'm SO hot! No really I am.
