I read this just under a year ago. I will admit it was a flawed book, but even amongst those, it was still a good read. I think the prose was one of the best parts. As for the story, I think the first quarter of the book was really well done. It was almost as if each chapter was a little...

This is getting ridiculous. I was happy when I bought gas yesterday for under $3.00 a gallon. Of course my folks proceeded to tell me how he is paying $0.60 cheaper a gallon where they live. :mad: I don't see this madness ending anytime soon.

I wanted to post this, and I hope I am not overstepping any boundaries. I also figured that it could be used as a thread to discuss his work. But Jeffrey Ford is doing a couple of readings with another author, Greg Frost. The "gigs" are on Saturday, October 8th. You can get the info from...

I have the "Two Voices" thing on CD, with Brian Dennehy and Bebe Neuwirth. And at the beginning the announcer pronounces it GAY-men. I can only assume that it was correct.

I have read "A Song for Arbonne", "Tigana", and "The Lions of Al-Rassan" (which ranks as a top five book for me). And I recommend them all (directing towards Worm). I have the "Mosaic" duology and "The Last Light of the Sun" on the TBR pile.

Jenn stole my answer. :)

I second the recommendation of Guy Gavriel Kay. He is an excellent writer, and he has plenty of stand-alone novels to test his style and the genre.

Mine says that I love my dog. :cool: And jenngorham's (above) means good taste in comic strips. :D

I have "The Gun Seller" sitting on my to be read pile. I came across it at an IKEA store of all places. They had loads of books with titles in Swedish taking space on shelves for display. And I kept seeing Laurie's name on it. So I got curious and opened one to the back flap and was...

Yes. When he was just short of two years old. He turned four this past July. He's a golden retriever named Molson (just as a joke, it's not my favorite beer or anything).

Just like Doug Johnson, I have posted first a few times and didn't introduce myself. My apologies. My name is Scott. I have been an avid reader since college, though most of it consists of sci-fi and fantasy. Recently in the last year I have been reading books that fall more in the general...

This is one of only two books that I ever listened to via audio. My wife and I were heading to Detroit to see my family, and I figured it would be cool to pass the time during the 10 hour drive (and what better then to "read" a story about the city we are going to). And much credit to...

I just finished reading this last night. And though I can understand some of the complaints and questions brought up, I found it a very interesting and haunting read. Maybe it is from reading too much sci-fi in my life. (I recently started reading more general fiction.) But I had a hard time...

I just joined, and have to jump on the bandwagon of those that liked/loved this book. I read it last summer while on vacation. And maybe it was the fact that I wanted something that was a good story, not a piece of literature that opened new avenues or explored new ideas. But in some ways...
