What are you reading?

Finishing Clive Barker's Weaveworld (for the second time)

After that I have The Art of War by Sun Tzu.

Just finished: Under the Eagle & Eagle's Conquest by Simon Scarrow.

Trying to find the following books, he's got several novels of that genre and theme - When the Eagle hunts, The Eagle and the wolves, The Eagle's prey, The Eagle's Prophecy.

Seeming just intresting to me, plus my favourite theme. :3

Vampirates - Blood Captain.

Just finished: Arthas, the novel by Christie Golden
Currently reading: The Sandman series by Neil Gaiman
After that: the Saga of Dune by Frank Herbert

Dune is awesomesauce - Watch the movies.

Sharpe's Regiment - The one book in the series I sort of 'left behind' a few years ago which I intend to catch up on.

I think I managed to book 14 or something, then I eventually got bored and gave up.

Not that the series itself is bad or anything but the overall story progresses so slooow.

There are 12 books.

As for what I'm reading? Acacia, first of a fantasy series. I was expecting something less... High fantasy than it is thus far. I've blitzed through a few books in the last week. Little Brother (which was really quite awesome and worth reading), 1984; for about the tenth time, and History of the Khitans; also really interesting, if you're good with history.

I'm actually reading that as well... or rather the 135 pages of prologues before I can start the actual read...

Do plays count?

If so, my last read was:
Samuel Beckett - All That Fall

If not, my last one was:
Thomas Pynchon - Gravity's Rainbow

My current book is Samuel Beckett - Malone Dies (I know it's the second of three, I'm reading them in that order for time saving~).

Currently rereading both Halo: Ghost of Onyx and Warcraft Archives.
Onyx due to it being pure awesomeness and Archives mainly because when I tried reading it in one go the first time I ended up missing quite alot of things.

I'd say that they're good, definitely worth a shot.

Currently reading; Daggerspell by Katharine Kerr.
Waiting for my brother to finish Star Wars and Philosophy, Edited by Kevin S. Decker and Jason T. Eberl

I was reading them in Finnish so that's why the high number.
Don't know why but then they translated the series they decided to break it up. 1 Original book turned out to 3 books or so.

*shrug*

:O I'd never have guessed! Dharum, you are a genius.

Love the book, easy to read, lots of awesome tidbits about Greece and my personal favorite of Rome.
