I'm just about a third of the way through the audiobook of Ghost Story, the final step of relistening to the entire series in preparation for Cold Days. It really is a good series.

I recently re-read Joe Abercrombie's First Law trilogy, just as good as I remember, and I'm a few chapters into his latest stand-alone in the same universe, Red Country. Familiar faces make for interesting reading.

Have you ever read his short story, "Nobody Will Laugh"? It's great. One of my favorites.

ReReading the Hobbit. Once we get some snow and cold Ill be reading the entire Sherlock Holmes again. Its like a thing I do every couple years at the farm, no TV, sit by woodstove and read.

Oh, I also went on a Styron kick and read Sophie's Choice and Set This House on Fire.

I just picked up The Alienist and am also reading Words Like Loaded Pistols: Rhetoric from Aristotle to Obama, which is pretty awesome.

cold days.... I'm only going to say... ****. he brings a lot of plotlines, and introduces (though he's dropped clues the whole series) the overarching storyline and a possible means for the apocalypse starting. crazy shit.

Find some new books, bud.

Dresden Files you say huh, I will look into that. Is it anything like the syfy show?





2nd person to recommend this to me. I will look into these as well.


Thank you gentlemen.

Same characters, slightly different take on them in the TV show. Much, much, much more to the books (the show only lasted a season...).

Shades of Grey

shits makin me walk around w/ boners all day

I tried doing a search, but has anyone mentioned 11/22/63? New Stephen King. Loved it.

It was new Stephen King about a year ago.

Best thing he's done in years, and years, and maybe his most solid ending ever.

I have new ones too. But these are on the radar now. Ill throw in new stuff, Christmas always brings books, but I enjoy rereading some over and over.

I just finished book 3 in Conn Iggulden's conqueror series, it is very good stuff. George RR Martin mirrors much of the Dothraki after the Mongol tribes.

I've read Jules Verne

Journey to the Center of the Earth.
From the Earth to the Moon.

WOW!!! Great but it needs to be decoded at times.

Just finished reading about 8 King novels again, back into Clive Cussler's Dirk Pitt
