what... are... you... READING

[Lucifer]

Born on a blue day. Daniel Tammet.

i heard the serialisation on Radio 4, and really enjoyed it.  what's the book like?

[Calandale]

Heretics of Dune. Found it for 25 cents,
so I figured I'd try it.

Eternal Champion by Michael Moorcock

  

I read the Stormbringer series do I get cool points for that??

You mean the Elric saga? Yes you do. *dishes out coolness points* 

[Calandale]

Does Jerry Cornelius count? 

That shit was fucked up.

The best thing that I remember
reading of his, was outside the
whole Eternal Champion series,
the book that "The Great Sun
Jester" was based on. Can't
remember the title though.

[duncvis]

Hmmm. Doesn't ring a bell, but I haven't read everything he's published. Jerry Cornelius counts though. trippy shit. 

[DirtDawg]

I've been doing all the Dick, again, as in Philip K.

I found a two volume book club set of his short stories at Goodwill last week. It claims to be complete and unedited. I know his novels, well, but I'm not sure If I had read all his short stories.

If I seem more dark and sarcastic than usual, that's probably why.

Your fantasies grow ever more intriguing by the hour.

Anything else to share?

 

(I really do like the Dick.)

i'm afraid that would be the deluxe package, and you only forked out for the economy package, you skinflint.

OH! I see.
Now, I find out there's a Deluxe Package to be had.

Should have saved a throw or two, I suppose.

#  The Fireclown (1965)

    * Variant Title: The Winds of Limbo (1965)

I also forgot about Gloriana, which was probably
even better. Been a good 20 years since I've read
that though.

[duncvis]

The Winds of Limbo! thats the fucker. I have read it, but I cant remember it, I was probably about 15 at the time.

[Calandale]

Yeah. It's been a while for me
too. Like most of my collection
of books, I ended up giving it to
my wife. Really remembered liking
it though.

[The_P]

Finished reading The Godfather. Who taught Mario Puzo grammar? I noticed quite a large number of grammar mistakes from that novel.

Isn't it great getting old? Everything becomes new, again.
