    Just finished Johannes Cabal, the necromancer by Jonathan L. Howard it was interesting to say the least. A very different read from the James Patterson and John Grisham book I normally read

    Thanks MasterShake!!!

    That's from the first volume. It's called "In the Hills, The Cities".

    I love Barker's imagination. It's twisted as hell but the originality and his prose makes up for it in spades...;-)

    Terrible book. I mean, it has a lot of good information and tells good things about Kurt. But this book is all over the place. No flow to it what so ever. I did enjoy the section on how Arena Football got started (this was supposed to be about Kurt wasn't it?) Anyway, terrible book.

    Now I am starting Assassin's Apprentice - Robin Hobb

    I got the name of this 3 book series from a website that listed th top 10 fantasy novels (series). I hope it's good.
    Thanks Shake!

    Robin Hobb's books are great. The Farseer series and Rainwild series are awesome. I recently read her Soldier Son series, and it was well written but the lead character was not that nice of a person. So it was not as enjoyable as her other work.

    You might want to check out Steven Erikson "Malazan Book of the Fallen" decalogue. Book nine is out and book ten due next year. By the time you read the approximately 8,000 pages of the first 8 books I'm willing to bet book ten won't be far away (along with the book you noted.)

    I'm re-reading the entire series (currently on book 2 - Deadhouse Gates) before starting on book 9 or 10.

    “When we do find that guy, we’ve got to have the continuity on the offensive side to where we can train him and develop him and get him there. This is our fourth offense in probably three or four years. Quarterbacks need to be developed. You don’t find one ready-made. We got to have a solid system in place for when we do go after whatever guy it may be, a young guy or a trade or whatnot.”

    Finished "Neverwhere" by Neil Gaimen a week or two back. Great book, really enjoyed it (I mean really). It's a book hard to describe and continually defies catagory or genre. It's a melding of fantasy, history, today world, and something else inbetween. It takes you down a winding road that is continually interesting and will always keep you guessing. A truly wonderful story set in a place that captured my imagination.

    Picked up Neil Gaimans other big title, "American Gods" and am working through that. So far so good.

    Finished "Marcus Aerelius: A Life" by Frank McLynn. Don't get it, I wrote about it before but finally finished it. Two thumbs down.

    The book replacing that is "Team Of Rivals: The Political Genius of Abraham Lincoln" By Doris Kearns Goodwin. Very good so far. Will write about it later.

    Decided to bite the bullet and started reading the Wheel of time series. I'm only 100 pages in the first book (been reading it before bed), but I can start to see why this series is so popular.

    A friend of mine at work gave me a copy of Necroscope by Brian Lumley.

    I read this in a day. Wow! I didn't think I would get into that kind of a book but wow!

    I bought the second in the series and ordered 5 more online. That's how good it was.

    A very interesting take on vampires and what they truly are. You get attached to the characters and almost don't want to put the book down.

    I'll let you know if the 2nd in the series called. Necroscope 2: Vamphyri! is any good. I sure hope so because I really enjoyed the first one.
    Thanks Shake!

    and i'll let you know, it's about to get incredibly weird. . . .


    it's been a long time since i've read them, but i definitely thought the first book was the most compelling. . . the others did hold my interest enough to read the entire series, though. . . by about the third book, it just gets downright bizzare. . .
