Now reading

[Cridds]

It's about a man/woman detective partnership who are on the hunt for a serial killer who has a nursery-style theme about his MO's. Very good book so far and I still can't see which way it's going to play out!

I don't like books, I never liked reading. Then I prefer audiobooks. Thrillers and crime fictions.

Cool, another reply here!

I'm still reading my World War I book 1915 The death of innocence. 600+ pages so it takes a little while to read that haha!!

I'm now reading this at the moment:



Coming to the last 50 pages or so, think of it as 24 (Jack Bauer, etc) set in the mid 1990s - very compelling reading!

i've read all the op-centre books. try to read them in order, although its not crucial that you do.

Yeah that's what I intend to do - I can't stand reading books like that out of order!

currently on part four of George r r Martins A Song of Ice and Fire entitled A Feast for Crows. Got to say this is possibly the best series i have read since Stephen Kings Dark Tower series.

I absolutely loved this series of books from one of my favourite authors.

What is the new collection about that you are currently reading?

[ktulusone]

A Song Of Ice and Fire is set in medaeval times involving the lives of major families the Lannisters, Starks, Tullys and Freys and also many minor families, outlaws and commonfolk. There are several religous factions involved as well. The first book A Game of Thrones concentrates on the stories of a few characters and as you read further books George Martins mythical world expands to include other realms and worlds. The first book was made into a tv series by HBO and this is the most faithful serialization of any book that i have seen.
I have read only the first four books and today started part five A Dance With Dragons. The characters in these books are really believable and when reading the books i developed tremendous empathy/loathing for them. When reading the Dark Tower series there were two or three subplots within the story with this story there are loads of subplots going on all of the time but this does not cause confusion. I would say it is extremely important to read these books in order otherwise it will not make sense.
I usually recomend any book purely if when i start reading it i cannot stop. These books want me to stop everything and read them. Be warned though like the dark tower series the more books you read the longer they get. Part five is as long if not longer than anything Stepen King has written and i have read everything he has written.
As usual one mans meat is another mans poison, so even though i think these books are a work of art other people may not agree.
Enjoy pete
