I expect Martin would do just as good a job with the WWI trenches, but it wouldn't have dragons.

I am reading The Peshawar Lancers, an alternative history book. My wife loved it. There's a lot of action, fighting, and adventure in this book.

I am reading The Doom that Came to Sarnath, a collection of short creepy stories by Lovecraft, and Tales from Earthsea by Le Guin, short stories set on that famous world... 
The first story in Tales rocked!

Ain't it great? 
I spent the last two hundred or so pages of that book sitting cross-legged in a recliner, hunched over it, biting my knuckle. My back hurt the rest of the night, but I think that's one of the greatest highs life has to offer when you find a book that does that to you.

ive read most of the stories of Sarnath, by Lovecraft...pretty cool...hes sometimes hard to read, though....VERY descriptive...heh

Lovecraft can make you question your sanity at times. Stay up late and sit in a quiet room while you're reading H.P. to get the full effect.

About 18 years ago it was late at night and raining and I began to reread The Dream Quest of Unknown Kadath. I picked up a funny cigarette, by mistake 
, and soon I had a pack of Zoogs literally climbing up my legs...shudder! 
Oh too, too weird!

I'm trying to finish the last novella in Elizabeth Hand's latest book, BIBLIOMANCY. Then I'll move onto Lucius Shepard's FLOATER.

Halfway through 'The Waste Lands' by Stephen King.
A books caught my eye in the bookstore the other day, just wondering if anyone knows it - I can't remember the author, but it was called 'Legacy' and I think the cover said it was book one of the 'Corean Saga'. Any good?

I will start reading Ship of Destiny by Robin Hobb today. It was a while since I read the other "Ship - books", so I hope I will manage to keep up with the story...
Posted: Sat Nov 15, 2003 5:19 pm
Going off right now 2 buy either Tales form Earthsea or the Other Wind so I can keep up with all the wild discussions in the Le Guin forum at Ahira's Hangar. (click my www if u'd like to check that out! )

What does the LeGuin forum say about her ALWAYS COMING HOME, Danlo?

Book two of Hobb's Farseer Trilogy, Royal Assasin. Good stuff, but it's depressing. Why am I complaining? It's nothing compared to TC or ASOIAF.

We haven't reviewed that yet Joy, you might want to talk to Fist about that. He is the moderator of that forum (goes by the name of Highdrake @ Hangar...). Feel free to start a topic on it if you wish.

Having completed both Chronicles I have moved on to Daughter of Regals. Mordant's Need is on tap after that. Wahoo.
