Perdido Street Station - China Mieville
Bonehunters - Steven Erikson (I'm still on that kick)
Final Crisis - Grant Morrison (I'm loving his Batman and JLA graphic novels right now)

I'll buy the cripple god to read for Easter when I'm on leave. I actually enjoyed the books that ICE wrote also and it explains some of the things in the main series also Unfortunately can't give an example with out giving spoilers :scratch: Hope you enjoy it I read house of chains a long time ago ...

Yay someone who enjoys Malazan actually want to read the last book but its a bit hectic at the moment :? Ah and those Necromancers in 3 are rather interesting in a messed up way if you like them try getting the novels about them or the omnibus of the first 3 books about them Now that I think about ...

I found The Silmarillion too difficult to stay focussed on - never finished it. Oh, Lady Tribble! The Silmarillion is a book of such beauty that you can't help but weep in both sorrow and joy as you read it for the 22nd time. The language is like music, it just takes a little getting used to. I'm s...

I'm a huge fan of C.S. Lewis and the following words from his sermon, The Weight of Glory , always make me think that every interaction we have with another human being is so much more than we assume it to be. "It is a serious thing to live in a society of possible gods and goddesses, to rememb...

Hell dude! I thought my legs would snap off on the rebound but you hardly feel it when the rope snaps you back up.

I'll start reading the series and let you know MT. Before that I have to start Erkison's Deadhouse Gates though

Okay here are some of the pics: http://img411.imageshack.us/g/sdc14065.jpg/

Most of them are just us gearing up though.

I did it my peeps! :D It was exhilirating and I want to do it again and again and then some more. We took some pics, which I'll post soon, but sadly no vids of the jump. They wouldn't let us up the platform with a cam :( The guys who work there are uber friendly and they are good at calming people d...

If the rope snaps I had better die! You can have my soul wizard

They have swing as well as bungee. They set the bungee up on a platform between the two towers (lawls).

Yepperz, I'm an old man now. No cool grey beard though...

Anyhow, I'll definately make an adventure of it

Hey guys, I'm going to throw myself off a tower tomorrow to celebrate turning 23 recently. I'd just like to know from anyone who has gone bungee jumping before whether I should take a change of underwear and pants with? I'm going to the Orlando Towers in Soweto with a few friends and I think the jum...

What a long and time-consuming journey you have begun...

Hey MT, is the journey worth it though?

Yay someone that reads Erikson can't wait for Jan Hey Cap. Gosh! Erikson is just amazing. I've just fallen in love with his characters and the world they inhabit. I'm done with Gardens of the Moon and while I wait to get Deadhouse Gates I'm reading Ian C. Esslemont's Night of Knives . Have you read...

I have so many books on my shelf that I have to get to. Anyhow, I'm just about done with Steven Erikson's first book in The Malazan Book of the Fallen series, Gardens of the Moon and I must say that it's really good thus far. The magic system is very intriguing. I finally got around to buying the fi...

I just finished "Ender's Game" by Orson Scott Card - good book. I read Ender's Game a few month's ago and I really enjoyed it, so much so that I didn't do any work on the day I started reading it. Thank God that it's a relatively short read or I would have ended up getting fired. The sequ...

I want to get started on Neil Gaiman's American Gods and Orson Scott Card's Tales of Alvin Maker... How I wish the days were longer.

I will do that I'm in the same boat though, I buy more books than I read. I haunt book stores!

Freeboy - long time no see :D Estoril books is having a 20% off all books on Monday 26 July. I cannot go :( I will be onsite at a client - far far away :( Ahoy Lady Tribble :) It's been a while. The freeboy is too busy fighting imaginary dragons to tend to 'real' life's affairs doncha know ;) Book ...

Hey MT, I actually started my annual re-read of The Hobbit this morning :) I just finished reading Graham Masterton's Tengu and it's kind of freaky! But a good read for anyone who wants a quick thrill. I have met one person in my life who has read The Hobbit and The Lord of the Rings every year sin...

Good morning Lady Tribble A Happy Friday to you too. It's been ages since I've been up this early in the morning. Sense good vibes in the force do I.

Nah, traffic will be non-existent if you trust in the good vibes dear lady

Hope you enjoy it. Would be nice to know what other people think about it Hey Cap :) My first batch of the Malazan Book of the Fallen books should be arriving next week. I managed to get hold of Deadhouse Gates but there's no sense in reading it before I get my grubby paws on Gardens of the Moon. I...

Thanks Cap I am planning on buying a few of his books this weekend.
