Inge and the catgang

Monique Y. Mudama...
I'm reading through those now, too! They're so fun. The first couple
were just "okay," but then they got good. I don't know if that's
because Mr. Pratchett hit his stride or because I got used to the
shape of the stories.

Joel: "A Storm of Swords: A Song of Fire & Ice" (Book 3 in the series of
'The Game of Thrones') by George R. R. Martin. Joel would like people to
know hw rarely reads fantasy, but this one has him hooked from the first
book I woke up at about 5am a week ago, to discover the lounge light was
still on. I got up to turn it off, only to hear Joel shout 'Oy'. He had
started reading at 10pm after Cary went to bed, and was still going. Once I
pointed out the time to him he said "oops, I thought it wa sonly midnight or
so. I haven't been able to put this down!". Joel tends to prefer military
sci-fi.

Monique Y. Mudama...
Those books are awesome. I'm peeved, though, because I don't like to
start series if they aren't already finished by the author. Some
authors go off into the weeds and never come back, and anyway it's
hugely frustrating waiting a year or two for the next book.

Other than that, though, such a good series. Totally different than
most fantasy. Really barely fantasy at all. Extremely violent, though,
and the author is ruthless -- favorite characters get killed left and
right. You never know who is going to be killed or maimed next. It
does give the story a certain urgency that it might not have if you knew
that all the main characters would come out unscathed.


Vicky: House Corrino (Book 3 of the 'Prelude to Dune' series). Although
there's a stack of books on my 'to read' list.... I don't seem to get
through as many now that Cary is here.

Cary: Read? Doens't that involve sitting still? No thanks!!!! (although he
will occasionally be tempted into looking at "Pooh's Sunny Day songs" which
Julie & Rusty gave him while they were here)


Marina...
Just finished Manda Scott's series on the Boudica. Sad to reach the end
of the series, but she says on her web page that she is going to keep
writing about that era, so I'm looking forward to more.
Other books in progress:
Hanif Kureishi: My ear at his heart
Colin McInnes: The London novels
British Short Stories ed. Malcolm Bradbury (ran out of books, so pulled
an old anthology off the shelf. Must go to bookstore soon)


Joy...
I'm currently reading two books: "The Feast of our Lives" by June Christine
Goudey and "Raphael", which is the third of a trilogy called "A Trio for
Lute" by R. A. MacAvoy.


Sam...
Well, you asked.

Sam: BGP4 an introduction (about the BGP4 Internet protocol)
Interconnections (also about networking)
Access 2003 inside out

jXwXeXrXmXoXnXt...

Morning, by same author)
