So What Are you Reading?: Generations

Just finished the latest Voy-R novel, The Eternal Tide. Have just started reading some comics, specifically Paul Jenkins & Humberto Ramos' Revelations, and Mike Mignola & Ben Stenbeck's Baltimore series.
 
Moving on to the The Lost Years by J.M. Dillard. I don't think I've ever read anything by her that wasn't a novelization of a movie or an episode so this should be a treat.
 
I finished Walter B. Gibson's first pulp Shadow novel, The Living Shadow. I'm not entirely sure what I'm going to read next in prose. But certainly many more comics of a great variety are in my future. :)
 
I took almost a year and a half off from Trek reading, just got burned out. I'm about 2/3's through Vanguard Declassified. The series is as good as I remembered it. Don't see myself getting back into Trek the way I was before when it was all I read for a long time, but I do want to finish up some series, Vanguard, Mirror Universe and try to keep up with the on going continuity.

In the mean time I got into Charles Stross and China Mieville. And watching Game of Thrones got me interested in trying some fantasy but I wanted some thing with an ending that wasn't going to take a dozen books to get to so the local Sci-Fi store recommended I try Best Served Cold by Joe Abercrombie. Sort of a fantasy meets Sergio Leone revenge fantasy. I loved it and will be reading more by that author.
 
Am in a mood to re-read some of Robert E. Howard's original CONAN stories. Maybe "People of the Black Circle" or "Queen of the Black Coast." Hmm, REH really liked the world "Black," didn't he?

(Says the guy who wrote The Black Shore . . . .)

I received Empire of Illusion: the End of Literacy and Triumph of Spectacle by Chris Hedges. Disturbing book, almost gratuitous -- but thought-provoking to be sure. I didn't read anything else until I'd finished it.

Now I have No Logo by Naomi Klein and The Sun's Heartbeat to consider.
 
I couldn't resist a re-read of Jeff Smith's Bone, less than a year after first reading it. While I was hunting for my next book, it was the only one to really pull me in. But of course I'll get through it quickly so I'm really just delaying the inevitable. :)
 
Just re-read Star Wars: Hard Contact as part of my Star Wars read-through. (Which is more or less a side project).

Now, The Sorrows Of Empire. (I know I do a lot of re-reading, but both of these books are good enough to do so, especially in a reading project). :)
