Christmas gift from my mum, and one of the final books I need to own everything Clarkson has published. There are still a few, I believe (Planet Dagenham, among them), but I can get those in the future. I like Clarkson's writings, and I do find his sense of humor appealing even if I don't always agree wirth what he says. This should be a quick and fun read.

For anyone who remembers the last book I read (Wilbur Smith's Birds of Prey), it was something I highly recommend. I enjoyed it a lot, but not everyone might. You could get a good idea of Smith's writing style from Eagle in the Sky if you wanted a shorter sample of his abilities.

Just ordered Dragon Age: Asunder, from what little I could spare. Gaider's writing in the first two books has left much to ask for, but I do want to know the general direction the next game will take with his lead. And that counts for everything. Will be a read for several night shifts.

The Wheel of Time is written in real time. For every day you spend reading that series the characters age about one day.

As Mathachew said, it's a very long journey.

I, Partridge - We Need To Talk About Alan

Had it ages now but finally got round to reading it. Takes me ages to start a book :laugh: . Last one i read before that was Scott Pilgrim... quite a big gap between books.

I'm currently re-reading the Winds of the Forelands series. As soon as I finish the last book (book 5) then I'll start on a follow up series that I haven't read before. There are now three books in the "Blood of the Southlands" series. Both series take place in the same world which is inhabited by two races: the Eandi who cannot use magic and the white-haired but short-lived Qirsi who each can access one or more magic power (gleaning, fire, healing, mists/winds, shaping, language of beasts and mind-bending). A Qirsi who can access all of the magics (and do more with them) is called a Weaver.

At any rate, I've got the first book of the second series sitting here ready to go but I wanted to remind myself what had been happening in the first series. I'm almost ready to start the new series.
