| Re: What book are you reading? I'm currently reading Amazon.co.uk: Crossroads of Twilight (Wheel of Time) by Robert Jordan. Started to re-read the whole series ages ago as I couldn't remember what had happened when I got the latest book, and now he's published 2 more since I started, lol... guess I don't read that fast  Matt |

| Re: What book are you reading? All Aunt Hagar's Children, a collection of short stories set in Washington DC. Mostly, I liked the cover. It's a good read, though! Also, I just picked up Diary of a Mosquito Abatement Man, a collection of comics by John Porcellino, and it's wonderful! links: All Aunt Hagars Children Diary of a Mosquito Abatement Man |

| Re: What book are you reading? I'm also reading three books right now: George Orwell - Burmese Days Irvine Welsh - Trainspotting Stefan Strobel & Thomas Uhl -Linux: Unleashing the Workstation in Your PC Bit of an old book for linux, but it's a good start for someone like me. I'm still trying to get a working dual-boot install. Seems windows just isn't having it and prevents me from making decent partitions because it refuses to move some files in defrag.  |

| Re: What book are you reading? After visiting the nearest Barnes & Noble yesterday, I came away with 2 new ones and 1 old, which I'm (re)reading now - Dragonflight by Anne McCaffrey. I remember reading the short version, Dragonrider, when it was first published in Analog back in 1967. Funny I'm just now going back to the full version... Oh, and the new ones? The Ghost Brigades by John Scalzi (loved his first novel, Old Man's War) and Century Rain by Alastair Reynolds (I got hooked by his Revelation Space series). |
