Yeah, you should <!--emo&:P--><img src='http://definecynical.mancubus.net/forum ... tongue.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tongue.gif' /><!--endemo--> <br><br>I'm reading Feist's new book <i>Jimmy the Hand</i>. Actually I was reading <i>The Deadhouse Gates</i> by Steven Erikson, but Feist's was only 300 pages in a rather large font, so I though I'd read that first before continuing with Erikson's book <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://definecynical.mancubus.net/forum ... /smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif' /><!--endemo-->

I'm reading Ironclaw by Sanguine Productions, which is a pencil & paper RPG with anthropomorphic characters. Looks like fun, I'll soon be organizing games with some friends of mine <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://definecynical.mancubus.net/forum ... /smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif' /><!--endemo-->

HuffaMoose, how are you liking Myst? It's suprising how good the book is, considering it was based on a video game. Then again, there wasn't much of a game to write about...<br><br>The Hitchhikers Guide To The Galaxy is a classic, especially for the people here. <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://definecynical.mancubus.net/forum ... /smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif' /><!--endemo--> <br><br><!--QuoteBegin--> <table border='0' align='center' width='95%' ><tr><td class='quotetop'><b>Quote:</b> </td></tr><tr><td class='quotebody'> I read 3 of those. 2 were really good, one of them I didn't like too much.

I've got most of them, if you want titles.<br><br>As for myself, I recently picked up ??? by Dan Brown. Let's see if it's any good. I'm also working through my intro to philosophy book, seeing as I didn't read it fully during class.<br><br>NOTE: sorry, I forgot the title.
Still mostly here.
Right now I'm on an older sci-fi kick. At the moment I'm going through the Foundation series (only missing the second and sixth books from my collection, but they ARE here somewhere).<br><br>I just got through a bunch of Niven novels, including Ringworld and Neutron Star. (I'm trying to find Ringworld Engineers at the moment.)<br><br>When I'm done with the Foundation series, I'm going to pick up the notepad and begin writing again. =)

I'm am curently reading the Loard of the Rings books. I havn't managed to find time to read them in the past 3 weeks though. I'm 1.5 chapters into "Two Towers." I have a friend who's stated mission in life is to get everyne ion the world to reed these books. She got me to. I jsut need to find time to finish it. After that I'm going to read the bible form cover to cover. One of the few people to do that and I'm not even christian.
