?9.99 in Waterstones for a one-volume trilogy - not half bad! |
Well I hope you do enjoy it. But I do realise it's not everyone's cup of tea . _________________

Just finished reading my 'rogue' copy of Blood Lament by Raven Dane - those of you waiting with bated breath for 15th March are in for a real treat - excellent story and a cracking read! _________________ "Constant Vigilance!" |

Raven was not impressed with the rogue copies Looking forward to getting mine (non-rogue that is).
Certainly sounds like it's going to be awesome. _________________ "I sit on my arse, not my head." - Baron Gresse. |

Picked up "the chancellors manuscript " by ludlum for the equivalent of ?1.20 , and as Im faced with a 12 hour flight next week it could prove to be the bargain of the year!!, sweet. _________________ I always knew Chang was Chinese Intelligence.

Break no Bones by Kathy Reichs.
Better than the last one, at least it seems so after 4 chapters. _________________ The question that sometimes drives me hazy: Am I, or the others crazy?

Currently about 230 pages into my 'Age of Misrule' omnibus by one Mark Chadbourn. Lizzy will be pleased to know it's, thus far, a damned enjoyable read. I'm actually a little confused as to why I didn't enjoy it when I tried reading years ago.... ah, well, onwards! _________________ Pagan Music |

Glad you're enjoying it - I found the series a thoroughly enjoyable read (thanks to Lizzy as well!!!).
Just finished 'Every Dead Thing' by John Connolly. It's a detective story in the first person, and I'm told it slowly mutates into a horror story as the series continues. Just about to start the second book - Dark Hollow. _________________ If you strike me down, I shall become more powerful than you can possibly imagine. |

Just finished Raven Dane's 'Blood Lament', the second in her trilogy.
As Andy says it's brilliant. So much better than her first (which itself was a great read). This time set in modern day times, and slightly in the future by about two or three years (it spans about 7 years I believe).
Much better editing in this book too which made it all the more enjoyable.
Slightly shorter than the first novel, but no less gripping, if not more so.
Overall thoroughly good read... now I just wait for book three and then the prequel!! _________________ "I sit on my arse, not my head." - Baron Gresse. |

Thought you'd enjoy it! I suspect I'm going to have to buy a copy just to see how the ending in mine differs from the ending in the published books. _________________ "Constant Vigilance!" |
