some book called "The Blade Itself" by Joe Abercrombe.
It's not been too bad thus far really. _________________ "Right so we're going to steal a bomb that can be remote detonated, take it back to our base and then huddle around it? That sounds like a great plan." |

I've just finished Voice of the Gods by Trudi Canavan, it being the last book in her Age of the Five trilogy.
A pleasant enough read but alas nothing more than that and at the risk of sounding spectacularly big-headed I'd guessed the ending half way through the first book!
If you've read the other two you'll want to read this but it's not a patch on her Black Magician trilogy to which she is thankfully returning for her next book. _________________ "Constant Vigilance!" |

Yep, Futre, I read very fast, especially on holiday.
I read several books a week on average, though a lot less at school.
I'm not surprised you can't get into Memoirs. _________________ Taking off is optional, landing is mandatory. |
