Reading Star Wars: Republic Commando: Hard Contact at the moment. After I finish both of those novels I'm diving into the Legacy of the Force novels. I'm also waiting for the new Halo novel to be released called Contact: Harvest. Can't wait to see how badass Sarge was when he was younger.

So you haven't read Triple Zero yet? It's pretty good too.

Nope. Getting there. About 1/3 of the way through Hard Contact.

Cool. Book 1 of Legacy is kinda draggy, but the two bonus stories are worth reading.

Yes. Thank you.


I'm reading A Brief History of Time by Stephen Hawking, and A Demon Haunted World: Science as a Candle in the Dark by Carl Sagan.

I'm also slowly but surely making my way through Robert Jordan's Wheel of Time series. On book 6 now.

I'm into Robert Jordan's WoT but currently reading Hesse's Siddharta to help detoxify from all that sword and sorcery. After a few easy books am going back into WoT. :)

Currently I'm reading Animal-Wise by Ted Andrews. It's pretty awesome thus far.

After that, I'll probably go and find the Halo novels and read those suckers.

The ones by Nylund are awesome. Those being "The Fall of Reach" "First Strike" and "The Ghosts of Onyx". "The Flood" which is the story of the first Halo game is decent. Gives you good insight on what else is happening around the rest of the ring.

Finished rereading all the Terry Prachett Diskworld novels, before that I reread all The Cat Who... novels by Lillian Jackson Braun. At the moment between reads. I'm trying to decide what to go with. I've got two new Forgotten Realms novels, about 5 new brainrot books (romance novels), a whole box full of Companion Library Series published 1965 (they're a bunch of childrens and young adult classics), some star trek novels I got from the book exchange, and about 10 Mercedes Lackey books that I want to read but havent gotten to yet. And I'm having the urge to pick up Dune and read it again.

Damn, I remember the days when I felt like that.


Now I just eat junk food and watch downloaded episodes of South Park when I'm bored.

High speed internet ruined my life. :-(

Same here, except replace "South" with "Doctor Who" and "Park" with "and Death Note."

But I'm slowly making my way through Harry Potter 7. I also have Splinter Cell: Checkmate, but so far, I don't like it as much as the other two Splinter Cell books.

How can you even surf the net without knowing the ending to the seveth book?

Anywho, just got done reading Micheal Pollan's The Omnivores Dilemma. Pretty interesting book to say the least, gives a damn good insight into todays production of food.
Hopefully going to get one of Barack Obama's books from my mother after she is done reading it to see what he is about.
