    Brian Keene: The Rising

    Mo, do you have any idea where it will be available ? The pricing on the publishers webpage is ridiculous, plus, I've never heard of this author.

    Books you quit/dropped

    I did that just yesterday. It was "Ghostwalk" by Rebecca Stott. Five days and I made it through 60 pages of bboredom. I figured times too precious to waste it. Plus the book I took then is halfway finished because it made me read until the early morning hours. :-)

    Saddest/Most Depressing Novel You've Ever Read

    I think the most depressing and disturbiing book I read in the past year was Gayle Sanders "Mummy's Witness". It's a non-fiction book but had long lasting effects on me. Lots of thougths and lots of sadness while reading. I actually found myself needing a break after three pages. Fiction books...

    How frequently do you visit the forums...

    Lately I've been visiting the forums up to 10 times daily. I know I could contribute much more to the forums but it seems that I've got some sorf of general forums hangover. It will pass. :)

    The reader interpets the sentence.

    I'd probably figured it out if I'd read what is written before that sentence. So it seems to me more based on an unwanted liability. But don't count on me, I'm speaking/writing english since three years. :)

    Non-US/British Sci-Fi?

    Andreas Eschbach (German author) once wrote a Sfi-Fi novel named "Quest". I really liked it and it left a very long lasting impression on me. He's also written quite a few other good Sci-Fi novels. It's peeving that his books get translated in French, Dutch, Japanese, Russian or Polish but...

    If you could meet any one who would you meet?

    I actually met Franka more than once. She is a very nice person. But back to the topic, I might say, I'd like to meet Kurt Tucholsky.

    Orson Scott Card to J.K. Rowling

    I have to admit I never read Harry Potter regardless that the books are all neatly stacked into my shelf. They were a present. However, with all the media that went on in the past years I always had the sour impression of Rowling making a media fancy about her books herself. There were always...

    Oldest book you own?

    We've got a lot of old books in our family. They reach back into the 16th & 17th century. They are all stored in a museum in Munich/Germany because they have everything to keep them in the best shape possible. We kept the younger ones at home though. They are from the 18th and 19th century and...
