Steven Erikson's Toll the Hounds. Which I got signed. Won't be reading it for a while as this is vol 8 and I have only read four.

We tell ourselves to stop buying books and comics, because we simply don't have room to keep them (living in a flat). But we still buy them. The last book I bought was "Red Seas under Red Skies" (Polish translation). And then there are a lot of books that we bought but haven't read yet.

Orcs - Omnibus Edition

By Stan Nicholls

Only about 50 pages in, but enjoying it so far.

Only chose it because there was a Gemmell quote on the front...

Rups, that's a good fun book.

Not the last book I bought as I bought it ages ago, but just received The British Invasion anthology from Cemetary Dance.

Thats not my car by Fiona Watts. My son is obsessed with this series.

The Shadow Queen by Anne Bishop is the last book I bought for myself.

Can't recall the last book, but I walked past Waterstone's today and they have a 3 for 2 offer on all books! I am making my list right now!!! I was going to save my pennies unti FanCon, but I might have to dip into that pot now. I've been after Scott Lynch's second 'Gentlemen' book for ages, and I think I'll top up my Steven Erikson collection. Then there's the last two in George RR Martin's fantastic 'Song of Fire and Ice' series... Lucky it's payday tomorrow.
