Author	Topic: What book are you reading?? part deux
SerraBanger Member	posted April 17, 2004 11:47 AM I'm currently reading a hilarious book called "Lamb" by Christopher Moore. It's a novel about Jesus Christ's childhood, written from the perspective of his best friend, Biff. Yes, it's borderline sacrilegious, and it's a laugh riot. __________________ ****.

Lunk Member	posted April 17, 2004 11:53 AM Agreed Serra, Lamb is hilarious. I'm currently reading Night Watch by Terry Pratchett on the recommendation of a few friends. This is my first Pratchett book and I seem to be having a hard time getting in to it __________________ "As below, so above and beyond, I imagine, Drawn beyond the lines of reason."

This is my first Pratchett book and I seem to be having a hard time getting in to it ohhh.. never get into one of his last ones as his terminology has advanced so much that he deems it obvious for people to know them. I can heartily recommend books like Pyramid and The Lost Continent, they stab wonderfully at countries like Egypt and Australia ("which is not actually about Australia, it's just about a parallel world that for some wicked reason shows some remarkable resemblance with a continent on Earth." [sic] Terry Pratchett). But as soon as you're in, you'll likely have a lifetime of joy of reading Pratchett books.

After I read the first book, though, I really like them. __________________ Warning! Be aware of a trader who has hacked MOTL accounts and other identity theft tricks. Check this link for more info.

Ashran Member	posted April 17, 2004 05:33 PM HALO: The Fall of Reach i recently finished, and although i haven't read in over a week, I am currently supposed ot be reading HALO: The Flood, although good books, I find the english use isnt the best, the first book made me think the author can't right at a gr 11 level.

What are your thoughts on the book btw Han? I'm really enjoying it. I read the first book in that series and got SERIOUSLY wierded out. I didnt read any more of them. Oh yah...If you like the Da Vinci code, his other books are also really good. I read Angels and Demons the other day, and loved it. I also just read Digital Fortress, which was pretty neat. __________________ o.ô I just got a warning beacuse my stupid sig didn't work. This box is cursed forever.

The Left Behind series reads like a B-grade comic book but is a pretty good take on Revelation nonetheless.

He's stuck to Revaltions very well and the end will be a HUGE leap of faith. __________________ Michael Stranc, yes THE Michael Stranc on the Perfect MOTLer: Magic Ability: I'll take this one, or Iakae, or Vampric Doctor with some tutoring, he's young but I think he could be trained.

Nitelite Member	posted April 17, 2004 07:55 PM Test of the Twins (Dragonlance Legends Vol. 2). Read these like 12-14 years ago, was curious if the love I had for them as a teenager withstood the passage of time. So far, they have.
raistlin Member	posted April 18, 2004 11:30 AM quote: Originally posted by HanSolo6385: Da Da Vinci Code My wife just finished that a few months ago. I re-read all the Drizzt books. I cant wait for book 3 of the Hunter's Blade trilogy when it comes out in October. Right now, though, I am reading Annotated Dragonlance Chronicles. Its pretty nifty. It has all 3 of the Dragonlance Chronicles books, but has a bunch of side notes and such.
crownjules Member	posted April 19, 2004 07:50 AM Currently re-reading The Dark Tower: The Wastelands and then Wizard and Glass so I can read The Wolves Of Calla. I got it for Christmas and wanted to read through the first four again to refresh my memory. Also reading The Fabric of the Cosmos on the side. And although I haven't really read them in many months, I'm close to the end of Book Four, The Shadow Rising, in The Wheel of Time series.

I tried reading it at the age of 10), JP1 wasn't a bad movie at all. I know that was probably not what you intended but I thought I'd point it out for the sake of it. __________________ rationalist :: metalhead :: perfectionist :: godless :: happy An important message from MOTL BTA council thingamabob: Mega ripper on the loose-- Check this info if you're trading with someone from Repentigny Canada!

MasterWolf Member	posted April 20, 2004 06:56 AM I'm currently reading a SF Anthology from the 60s. Mostly short stories from the Golden Age, which is pretty much my favorite. Besides that, I skim through one of the Harry Potter books nearly everyday. I haven't started anything new, though I have Neverwhere and Mister Monday (from the Keys to the Kingdom series) on my "to read" list. It's just been so hard for me to start reading again with this computer in my room...
