DeathscytheX 9,732 Report post Posted March 27, 2006 I Will Bear Witness 1933-1941 by Victor Klemperer pretty interesting read. Seeing as I am a history major I wouldnt count text books, but I have read some interesting stuff in my German Classes Trap with a Green Fence is an excellent book But i highly recommend Maus I & II. Really quick reads... its in comic format but its not a comic book. Its about an Artists dad that was German Jew, and he tells his dads story in comic strip from. Its a very powerful book/s.

Princess Tasha 559 Report post Posted March 27, 2006 I wanted to read Stephen King's "The Stand" again but I can't find it anywhere so I started reading a book that my brother gave me a few years ago. It's called "The Golden Compass" by Philip Pullman. It's pretty good so far. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sledgstone 8,672 Report post Posted June 28, 2006 *revives old topic* I finished reading Sphere not to long ago and I have got to say, that was one hell of a book. The plot is so unique! and the story was wrote so good, I could vision almost everything except the shear size of the spaceship or the squid.. much better than Congo. I should go pick up the movie. I'm almost done with "Eaters of the Dead" and this book is crazy. Its amazing that this is based off of true events that happened a thousand years ago. But the way it is all described, I can believe it. The northmen and their constant fighting, the cave dwelling dwarves that forge weapons, the mist demons aka eaters of the dead.. the battles, and how they were fought.. holy shit.

Wolflord 1,488 Report post Posted June 30, 2006 I'm currently re-reading Eye of the World, because the books I want I can't find. I want to read the second of The Rigante series (David Gemmell) and I want to read The King Beyond the Gate (Sequel to "Legend" by David Gemmell, great read. I loved it, learned a life-lesson from it in fact ) I recently re-read Echoes of the Great Song (by David Gemmell), it's a stand-alone book, which was such an amazing book, I want them to make another one, but I think it would ruin it Quote aomsehri \|/ This post is definitely my greatest contribution to the site.

Mibu_Kyoshiro 886 Report post Posted June 30, 2006 Right now I'm reading George Martin's 4th book in a series. It's called "Feast for Crows". Great series so far (although this book that I'm on is by far the worst of the series). If I can go all the way back to Saosin's post, Raymond Feist is a great writer. I'm a big fan of the various books about Talwin Hawkins as well and the ones about Pug's young life (Magician: Apprentice especially). After I finish the book I'm currently reading, I'm going to read 'Death of Ivan Illyich' next. Quote I sit here on my shelf, Just talking to myself. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Wolflord 1,488 Report post Posted July 10, 2006 I more or less can't find a bk that catches my eye so I read the HP bks over. I favor science fiction and horror, any suggestions? I have a question. How can you spell book as "bk" and still look at yourself in the mirror? Is it too difficult to put 2 o's in there? Takes less than a second. Back on topic. I read those books, and am reading Winter's Heart (nother WoT book =/) Quote aomsehri \|/ This post is definitely my greatest contribution to the site.

Mrs_Pig 100 Report post Posted July 10, 2006 I'm reading 2 Stephen King books right now. I'm reading The Shining at work on my lunchbreak and Misery at home. I haven't read either in a long time, and it's amazing how much of both of them I don't remember. According to my brother, I need to watch the newest version of The Shining because it's more like the book. Quote THEY CALL ME...MRS. PIG! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
