You love Lamb. It's amazing.

Ok I finished the 2 Charlaine Harris books and am about midway through Lamb now. I haven't received the Usability book from the library yet. I need to line up another 5 books.

The 5th book was Altered Carbon, which was great. I think I'll try and track down the rest of the series.

Apart from the books I mentioned in the show, I've got these lined up (in no particular order):

  • Shadow Kingdoms: The Weird Works of Robert E. Howard, Volume One.
  • Savage Tales of Solomon Kane by Robert E. Howard.
  • His Majesty's Dragon by Naomi Novik.
  • The Touch by F. Paul Wilson.
  • Brave New World by Aldous Huxley.

1. re-reading the Myth series from Robert Asprin - just because
2. Eat, Pray, Love by Elizabeth Gilbert
3. Rant by Chuck Palahniuk
4. Thank You for Smoking by Christopher Buckley
5. something else by Buckley probably... maybe Wet Work

I think Robert's work has suffered. I thought he had a major medical issue. The most recent Myth books were just not that good, and the same for the most recent Phule books.

Reply to This

true... but I own the trade pb for the first 12 Myth books (and 3.5), so I may have to finish the series

with the Phule books, however, I may be done... I'm not even sure what the latest ones are anymore

Chasing the Bard Rawks!

For Me:

Books 5 and 6 of The Dresden Files (I'd read more, but these are all I have in my possession).
Books 2-5 of Donaldson's Gap Series (I really want to write a sci-fi series like this).
Books 1-2 of George R.R. Martin's Song of Fire and Ice series
Legacy of Morevi
Angel Fire East and Running with a Demon (Terry Brooks).

Ok, that's more than 5. I'll stop here.

Unfortunatly with a new semester upon me most of my next 5 books wil be textbooks but since one of my classes is a Creative Writing class I can honestly say IM excited to read said textbooks. If anyone really wants a list I will list all 7-9 books on my list of required reading.
