[Cap'n Crunch]

Since my last post I've read Memoirs of Sherlock Holmes: The Crooked Man, The 4400: Wet Work, and Star Trek - The Eugenics Wars: The Rise and Fall of Khan Noonien Singh, Volumes I & II. I am currently reading Star Trek - To Reign in Hell: The Exile of Khan Noonien Singh. Next I'll be reading Star Trek: Burning Dreams.

Does it end on a cliffhanger, or do you just not want to wait?

Both. Sort of. I didn't really think of it as a major cliffhanger as the main story was pretty well wrapped up, but there's a scene that definitely sets up future stories.

I am halfway through "Treason" and enjoy it very much so far. I got quite a bit distracted by my other passion (which is the Anime/Manga series Bleach) but I have returned now to New Frontier.

Finished Temeraire, and what a great book it is. Going to start Throne of Jade, the second in the Temeraire series, this weekend. See my sig for the other books I'm reading.

I'm re-reading the stellar Aubrey/Maturin series. I'm currently midway through The Nutmeg of Consolation.

 

[Stevil2001]

Man, some light reading sure is nice after The Satanic Verses. I finished up The Story of Martha and I also read Alan Davis's Killraven graphic novel. Now I'm reading Crash Course, one of the digest comics that tie into the new The Clone Wars cartoon.

I've also read some books as research for papers I'm working on:
- Oz and Beyond: The Fantasy World of L. Frank Baum by Michael O. Riley
- The Lieutenant of Inishmore by Martin McDonagh

i hope the movie is better than that book

I've been wading hip deep in Poe for the last week, yet such is my mental fortitude that I am convinced--quite utterly convinced--that it has not affected my faculties in the least, apart from the occasional, extemporaneous comparisons of a morbid nature. Elsewhere, reading Factory Lives, a collection of 19th century working-class biographies (I needn't tell you what a barrel of fun that is) and just finished Paul Auster's City of Glass (good book, up until the last quarter or so).

Fictitiously yours, Trent Roman

 

[Rabid Trekkie]

Currently juggling VOY: Full Circle, NF: Treason, Sir Apropos of Nothing, Arsene Lupin-Gentleman Thief, and Ghost in the Shell SAC: The Lost Memory.

Wish I had more time to read so I could devote equal time to all of these.

I'd highly recommend the comic of City of Glass, which I think is even better than the book. It loses nothing and gain everything through the format change.

^ A friend of mine has it (didn't look around enough in the bookstore when he bought it); maybe I'll ask him to lend it to me after pscyho-insanity time is over.

Just started Vanguard: Reap the Whirlwind after polishing off the first two books in the series in anticipation of Open Secrets! I've really loved the Vanguard series, the cast of characters is so large and diverse and real in a way that Star Trek can often find hard to achieve.

As usual, I'm currently reading a bunch of books simultaneously. In terms of Trek, I started with VOY "Full Circle" and MU "Obsidian Alliances", the first one is great so far (I've read roughly a third), in the second one I've read the first story from KRAD and it was OK, but since I was never a big fan of the entire MU-concept, it quite hard to convince me here.
Non trek at the moment is mainly "Judas unchained", the second book of Peter F. Hamiltons Commonwealth-Saga. And on occasion I'm enjoying a non-ficition-book about marine ecology from the German Author Frank Schaetzing (The title translates as "News from an unkwnown Universe"). Some years ago, Schaetzing wrote of the most succesful thrillers of the last decade here in Germany, the SF-themed "The Swarm" (One of few German books that made it to the english-speaking world, definitely worth reading, one of the best Non-Trek-Books I've read in the last years). This Non-ficition-book is a kind of an by-product of "The Swarm" for which the author accumulated so much background-information about marine-ecology, that it turned out to be enough for a exciting book without the fictional components.

Glad to hear you're enjoying Reap the Whirlwind. You might be pleased to hear, then, that as of tonight I have finished the manuscript for book five in the series, Precipice, slated for publication in November.

What leads you to the idea, that's only him who's pleased about that?
Well done, the Vanguard-novels are always something to look forward to.

I made the tough decision between TLE:The Buried Age and VAN:Summon the Thunder, and am now 6 chapters, a whopping 40 pages, into Summon the Thunder. So far, i'm really enjoying hanging around Vanguard station again . I was going to save the book (along with the next 2) until book 5 comes out in November, but I just couldn't wait that long. I wonder what i'll read next...
