So what are you reading now? (Part 3)

[JoeP]

Now, what I'd really go for is Deep Six: The Continuing Adventures of L.J. Tibbs

That. Would. Be AWESOME...

 

[Thrawn]

I am starting to read my first-ever Non-TOS Trek book: The Lives of Dax.

Congratulations

 

[AdmiralSteven]

I'm finally reading "Unworthy" by Kirsten Beyer, and I'm loving it.

 

[Giggling Gein]

I just finished rereading Ex Machina by Christopher L. Bennett. It's probably my favorite TOS Trek novel. I wish that there were more novels like this filling in the time period between The Motion Picture and The Wrath of Khan.

Yeah, I'd like to see that series published

I'm just starting on Game of Thrones by George Martin.

Thank you! That's nice to hear.

 

[Nerys Myk]

Rereading PJF's "A Feast Unknown." Not for the puritan.

 

[greenmystik]

Right now I'm reading ST Titan: Synthesis.

After that I'm gonna start the Gorkon series.

I hear ya. I never thought I would put aside a PJF novel, but this one was too brutal for me.

PJF?

 

[Christopher]

Philip Jose Farmer.

 

[Nerys Myk]

The author of the Riverworld series and many other great SF novels. Also the biographer of John Clayton and Clark Savage, jr.

 

[mbruno]

Philip Jose Farmer.

Ah, thanks, didn't recognize the initials.

I'd read that.

Never read that, but I've read Image of the Beast/Blown. Judging by the description at wikipedia, though, Feast makes them sound like a saunter through the park.

Its like skipping through a field of daffodils on a spring day.

 

[JD]

I just read the description on wikipedia, and all I can say is... wow. Definitely does not sound like my kind of thing.

 

[Nerys Myk]

Farmer often pushed the limit when it came to sex and sexuality in Science Fiction. As an old man of fifty I'm a little more taken aback by the content than I was at twenty. (go figure)

 

[DimesDan]

I've put Star Trek Rogue aside as it's not really doing anything for me and all the love for Hawk (dare I even say it's a bit Marty Sue) is somewhat grating.

To replace it, I finally picked up The Writers Tale: The Final Chapter by Russell T Davies and Benjamin Cook. Being a Doctor Book and being "Probably the best book ever written about scriptwriting" I was planning on reading it in a non linear sense, starting off reading about the 2009 Specials and Torchwood: Children of Earth first, but given the structure of the book, I think I should give it more justice by working from the front all the way through to the back.

I just finished a two day blitz on Christopher L. Bennett's The Buried Age. This was the first time I read over the book all the way and I have to say that it has entered into my top five TrekLit of all time. Very well done, perfectly imagined and stunning insight into the characters. I particularly enjoyed the Stargazer Court Martial at the beginning (I've always been a fan of legal drama, the inquiry into the Bombay's destruction in Vanguard: Harbinger was another of my favorite scenes). 10/10!
