Hello again Welcome aboard

X files before it got strangled by its convuluted continuity (rewatching this at the mo- in the middle of season 3. Squeeze from season 1 still creeps me out) Firefly Babylon 5 (up to season 4) Star Trek DS9 Doctor Who (old and new) Farscape Twilight Zone Red Dwarf Spaced Ultraviolet...

Isn't it unlucky to be Chrismasy when it isn't Christmas? Or are you trying to be deep and profound by saying something akin to 'Peace and Goodwill to all men should be applied all though the year?'

Ooh I have that one. It's good to have a few of those oversized books with lots of pictures that people can flip though casually. I've rotated though a few - movie posters, top albums of all time, countries of the world. Even though I'm not a birdwatcher, the photography in this one's pretty...

Out of curiousity shadforth, which do you consider to be McBain's best book? I've only read 'Ice' and 'Sadie When she Died' by this author.

Fads? Not really - can't afford to keep up. Still not got hold of a mp3 player besides most of them are pointless Would you rather be M or Q from James Bond?

Today, bought Stoker's Dracula A near enough 1st Edition Necronomicon. And I thought occult bookstores no longer existed

Tom Clancy's Without Remorse. I did enjoy this one. It's a spin off detailing a different character from his Jack Ryan books which is a good thriller series for teens (Hunt for Red October, Clear and Present Danger, Sum of All Fears are the movies made from the series - you've got another 10...

Now you're making me feel guilty :sad: I do use amazon a lot as it's easier for me to get hold of US published books and cds that way without spending loads on P+P and availbility in store isn't quite so much of an issue. If I wander into a bookshop and start thumbing through books, I'm more...

Has anyone else been invited to this? Been invited for the UK version. Basically amounts to free stuff for a few reviews here and there (and I've only got 4 or 5 reviews up on amazon from a few years back).

Yellow seems to be the way forwards. 2 questions (as the first one's been driving me mad for the last week and I still haven't figured out a reasonable answer myself) 1) I've just come into possession of 4 A3 5mm thickness acrylic (perspex) BLACK non-transparent sheets. I have no idea...

Just a random musing... In this day and age with all the hooha about carbon emissions etc, is it worth considering the trees that need to be chopped down to create the books we all know and love? What would happen if books were taxed through the roof? Should people be encouraged to use...

are you still lurking around here?

testing, testing 1,2,3 Hi there

Well I never got around to reading it before and it looked nice and shiny: Also got hold of Heroes Die by MW Stover as it's constantly gotten rave reviews from a number of members of another forum :cool: Oh also Ishiguro's Remains of the Day was in the same order. Am going to go look...

Personally, I enjoyed the first story (Elric of Melnibone - all the stuff about dabbling with dark forces which exact a price, the setting up the world and the interplay of the characters) then the saga got very dull then picked up, then tailed off etc. There are good stories in the series- you...

I found the Runestaff books to be a decent enough average read, and easier to get into than Elric. Granted they cover very similar subject matter and Elric at its best is very difficult to beat. However, Runestaff was written in less than 2 years rather than the long writing period for Elric...

Try the blockbust app - it's basically a ripoff of travel blokus (2 player blokus). Edit - sorry it's called corner connect now

Watch out - here comes the part where Martin picks up a drink and explains how the bookforum ruined his life :innocent:
