Living in the past
Finished read one of my Christmas presents last week, “Michael Palin Diaries 1969-1979, The Python years.” If you like Monty Python it’s a great read. It is very reviling.
I didn’t have another new book to start on when I finished it, so I’m rereading Dune by Frank Herbert. It has been 8 or 10 years since I read it last. I had forgotten how engaging it is.

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.”

this is an incredible book-- i can't imagine the research that must have gone into it. . . truly epic in scope, and exceptionally well written. . . heartbreaking in places, but it's also a tale of perserverance and a tribute to the strength of the human spirit. . . highly recommended reading!

I just started the Shining. I was looking for Pet Cemetary, but the library didn't have it in. I was lazy on Sunday, so rather than look for a new book, I grabbed an old favorite.

At the moment I'm not reading anything except the forum (and wotmania, of course... ) but I just got back from Half Price Books and apparently Fred Saberhagen has been rather busy, so I've got s'more fantasy for the weekend. Still no luck finding a used hardback of The Eye of the World though; I think I'm going to have to break down and buy it new, which I really don't want to do, but I've ALMOST got the whole series in hardback, and as tomey as Jordan is buying paperbacks is just asking for trouble. With the appendix The Fires of Heaven is just over 1000 pages, and the same is true of Lord of Chaos; buy books like that in paperback and it's just a matter of time till you start shedding pages like a dog losing his winter coat.

Crapload of books about Iraq and the Middle East.

Read Merlin's Bones by Fred Saberhagen over the weekend. Not bad, though the Swords Trilogy will probably always be his best work (MUST be read in conjunction with Empire of the East, or it just raises too many questions that receive no answer). But I learned a new word out of it, and I can't remember the last time that happened.

Have you looked on Ebay? They usually have a decent amount of Jordan books for sale.
I am re-reading that series as well. Just started the Great Hunt. Hopefully by the time I finish the series Sanderson will be close to finished with the last book.

I'm reading a couple.
Everything's Eventual- collection of short stories by Stephen King- Good so far, first story is a bit weird. Man is dead, but has thoughts during his autopsy. Strange, but interesting enough to keep me going. Stephen King is a hit or miss for me, some of his books absolutely rivet me, others I can't get into and give up on.
I haven't started the other one. Can't even remember the name.
If anyone else knows of some authors that write John Grisham type books, please let me know. I get bored waiting on him to come out with new ones, but I can usually finish those type books in a couple days.

That story is kind of creepy. I remember reading that. I think it's the only story I've read in Everything's Eventual, but I do own it.
I'm reading Boys of Summer by Roger Kahn. About his experiences as a child and then covering the Brooklyn Dodgers in the 50s. He's a little wordy in the beginning, but I think it's going to be a good book.
