Another Dark Tower junkie! I'm going to re-read Wolves of the Calla before Song of Susannah comes out, at the very least. Can't wait can't wait

just read Eric Ambler's The Mask of Dimitrios--again. Definetly one of my favourite books of all time and well worth picking up if you like a top drawer thriller__________________

I know what you mean...I was ecstatic when I found out that they moved the release date of the last two books up a few months each. __________________ "Hello, my name is Inigo Montoya.

I just reread the whole Amber series by Roger Zelazny.If you are a fantasy fan, this this is really an amazing book. JR Tolkein might be the grandfather of fantasy, but Zelazny was the grandfather-in-law. He's that good.

Just finished Stuart Maclean's newest Vinyl Café novel...Well, it was great (ie: hilarious) at first. Then it started lagging when he shifted from Dave's perspective. Morley had a moment or two. And then it was all downhill from there.  __________________ Evil-doers! Cower in fright for I am the one, the only... um. Psst! Matt! What was that name again?

Working on in piecemeal: Neon Genesis Evangelion (manga) Rolling Thunder Speaks, Rolling Thunder The Tracker, Tom Brown, Jr.quote: Originally posted by inigomontoya: I know what you mean...I was ecstatic when I found out that they moved the release date of the last two books up a few months each.
This news makes me a very happy man. I saw a lot of reviews on Amazon that were saying King had lost his mind with the turns that WOTC had taken in the story, but I loved it from beginning to end.

Yes, it is indeed a long series. "The Wheel of Time" is also a very good series. And yet, Guy Gavriel Kay writes far better fantasy, if you're looking for some good fantasy. In fact, were it not for Kay and Pratchett and, to a certain extent Jordan, I wouldn't be reading fantasy any more. There's just too much bad fantasy out there. And a lot of it starts with Tolkein. (Oh man, I'm gonna put my crash helmet on now... this'll be like puttin my head through that window...)
