I would love to say the last book I read was Shadowmancer, but I have read one since that. It was called "Among the Hidden" and was pretty good. Its about thirds(Ender's game, anyone?) only now their really, really illegal. It was most interesting though. Shadowmancer is also very good. I'm reading "The Golden Compass" right now. Its not too bad, I need to read it more often to get it finished though.

The last book I finished was Give Me a Break by John Stossel. It was excellent.

Right now I'm reading Dragons of a Fallen Sun, which is the first of the War of Souls trilogy in the Dragonlance series. I just started it last night. I'm on page 103.

Wha-hey, just finished another book - 'The Hungry Tide', by Amitav Ghosh. Um... I liked it. I do quite enjoy reading books based on people from other (i.e. non-Western) cultures. It depicted quite a clash of cultures with a well off New Dehli businessman and an American girl of Indian (i.e. from India, not American Indian... but wait - she is American Indian, but er... not that sort ) meeting in the tidal mangrove areas of India. And there's something about a Scottish communist as well... well, sort of.

Anyway... recommended!

Now reading: 'The Zanzibar Chest', by Aidan Hartley.

The last book I read was <i>The Oddessy</i> by Homer. Currently I am reading <i>Uncle Tom's Cabin</i>, because the slavery period intrigues me. I've read enough European history lately and so I thought I'd give my own country's a try. I read a lot of books of a lot of genres, because reading is fun and keeps you from going stupid.

SO true. I like the whole Trilogy. Especially Homeland and Sojourn(sp?).

I'm reading <i>Brave New World</i> by Aldous Huxley right now. I actually like it, quite a bit. Lot of porn involved in it. It's about a future society with strict social classes, and (atleast so far) a Savage who visits it from his Savage Reservation, which is similar to our current society. I just got done reading <i>The Scarlet Letter</I> by Nathaniel Hawthorne. I really hated it. For those who don't know, it's about a Puritan woman who commits adultery and wears a red "A" on her chest.

yeah Homeland's the best cause it explaines alot about Drizzt and what he has had to go through

That's the book that's next on my list, after my physics teacher told me to read (he was shocked I hadn't ).

The last book I read would be the complete collection of Isaac Asimov's robot short stories that I'm finishing, before that would be...hmm, wow I really didn't as much as I usually do during the summer. It would have only been a few weeks ago, and I can't remember, that's odd.

It was called "Among the Hidden" and was pretty good. Its about thirds(Ender's game, anyone?) only now their really, really illegal. It was most interesting though.

Bah. I got all excited thinking that there was a new Ender's book .

I'm reading Perdido Street Station by China Mieville, for the second time. One of the best books I've ever read, and without a doubt the best fantasy book. Very refreshing seeing as how I'm so tired of the generic fantasy as written by Salvatore, Eddings, Jordan and so forth (this book is set in the steam-punk city of New Crobuzon). It swallowed me whole and I'm in love.
