[dmihatmttl]

-- NEVERLAND by Douglas Clegg (re-reading it, actually, for the 3rd or 4th time -- this one is quickly moving up on my list as one of my favorite novels of all time . . . wow)

Just got in James Carlos Blake's new novel and can't wait to get to it. Right now I'm right smack dab in the middle of Beloved by Toni Morrison.

[EYEBALLSEESALL]

I just finished Kaitlin R. Kiernan's "Low Red Moon" It was the first of her books that I've read and I was very impressed. She was able to put together a werewolf story that felt entierly original with three dimentional characters and no feel good, cop out ending. I highly reccomend it.

[ChaoticMinister]

Dante's Commedia (or "The Divine Comedy")...

Currently on Canto 6, I think... Very cool stuff...

I'm such a movie geek that I'm trying to visualize how I would shoot this into a film version if I could... There would undoubtedly have to be a lot of creative license applied.

I've always wanted to read it, and finally found a good copy of it from 1957 in the library bookstore.

Anyone else read it?

*FADE OUT*

[Dreaming Girl]

Cosmic Trigger by Robert Anton Wilson

[Ultimamk]

Book of Shadows by James Reese. I'll finish, I think, tommorow because I have a party to go to tonight.

The book is really good, though I think it has a tidbit too much sex (think James Bond, Friday the 13th, and Hellraiser combined times 3).

yes, it really does. my sister gave that book to me as a birthday present, because she knows that I'm very interested in american indians, and I must say that I have learned, not only from this particular book but from other "indian books" too, quite a lot...

I'm currently reading a book about horror films called Projected Fears, pretty interesting.

I just abandoned a book called Hunted Past Reason by the guy who wrote I Am Legend (and whose name I'm totally blanking on) - which started cool (about hiking and, as a hiker, I thought that was cool) but then turned into cliche-driven Deliverance rip-off. I just skipped to the last page and felt all the better for it.

Last really cool horror-ish book I read was House of Blue Leaves, of which I liked the core of the story (but could've lived without all the "postmodern" graphic touches) but that's me.

Just finished reading Stephen King and Peter Straub's 'Blackhouse' - the sequeal to the 'Talisman' - and now I'm reading Dean Koontz, 'Odd Thomas'. And so far i have to conclude that the book isn't too good...pretty boring in actual fact, but i believe in giving chances...well, up untill page 200, or so.

[Vodstok]

Dean Koontz had a spate of good books like Watchers, Phantoms, Midnight anbd Lightning, but he misses way more often than he hits. It's like he writes novels for every single idea he has, and just hopes some of them dont suck.

Vampires


the best one is from Bram Stoker, go figure.

i'm reading that Dale Brown book (or is it Dan ?)

Angels and Demons - the prequel to the Davinci Code...

the guy everyone is raving about and reading on the subways ..

i'm not liking it ... very simplistic ... tries to dazzle with 'true facts'
actual prose is pedestrian... and falls into every cliche thriller trap possible.

yeah, thats never been done before.

Why do they always insist on a rediculous love story when one isnt warrented ?

Does not finishing a book because it had a stupid and unbelievable conclusion count ? Then the last book I almost finished reading was Dean Koontz's 'House of Thunder' this morning. Everything was cool until (SPOILER!) we find out that the heroine's nightmares are all because she's actually being brainwashed by Soviets who captured her a year before. What a crappy way to finish off what was a really good book up until then. Worst of all is I have another Koontz book on my desk I was going to read afterwards. I'm tempted to read the ending first just to make sure it doesn't end up as lame as this one.

I find that's a commun problem woth Koontz. His books are usually pretty good, but he never knows how to end them IE- Cold Fire. Great book, until he starts explaining the wierd shit.

Anyway...I just finished Phantoms by Koontz. I definatly liked it:)

Narcissus in Chains by Laurell K. Hamilton. It was actualy pretty good, but the ending was mediocre. I reccomend all books in this series. Especialy Burnt Offerings.

[Unaboner3000]

Just finished Children of Dune by Frank Herbert. That is the 3rd book of the Dune series and was shockingly good. The first book Dune was great, and then I read the 2nd book Dune Messiah and it was not nearly as good and the first, although it wasn't terrible by any means. So I figured I read the 3rd to see if, as sometimes happens, the series just continues going downhill after the first. It didn't. The 3rd was just as good as the 1st.

the series gets weirder as it goes after #3

[urgeok]

i'm about 1/2 way through The Two Towers ..

figured i'd reread it to see what was left out of the movie (and why)

as i remembered Legolas and Grimly had much bigger contributions in the books fut the focus in the movie fell on Aragon

I had forgotten how well those books were written ..

[Unaboner3000]

the series gets weirder as it goes after #3

I'm well into book four, God Emperor of Dune, and would agree that the story has gotten weird. Unfortunately, it seems like Herbert has created such a vast story that he can't help but get a little weird. So far an OK book. I will put off reading the 5th and 6th books, which I have already bought, for a little while. Read a few others and then come back to the Dune story afresh.

i think he made the first few books accessable but he later allows his books to go deep into his vision of a possible future ..he sees it like he's already been there.

I dont think i've read any other author who sees the impossible so clearly.

[The_Return]

I was away at my cabin last week, and pretty much all I do there is either read or watch movies:D

Here's what I read:

Falling Angel by William Hjortzburg(sp?)- Great book that inspired Angel Heart. Seeing as all the stores here suck, I cant compare it to the movie, but it was a great read. Fast paced, action-packed, and an ending that'll hit ya like a ton of bricks [Unless you've seen the movie, of course:P]


Pet Semetery by Stephen King- I thought the same of this as I do of most King books [Green Mile and The Shining exempted]. It had a great plot, but the man really isnt a very good writer. His tangents into pointlessness had me bored into submission in some points. Overall, it was OK, I guess.


Along Came a Spider by James Patterson- My parents both love the Alex Cross novels, so I firgured it was time I read one. I certainly wasnt disapointed. Well written, and fast-paced for the most part, plus it had tons of twists, most of which were pretty unexpected.



Oddly enough, all 3 of those have movies based on 'em, but I havnt seen any....

[novadawn969]

i just finished darkness, tell us by richard laymon. it was not Laymon's best but i still injoyed it.

[urgeok]

just finished the Two Towers, and started The Return of the King.

interesting read just to see where the movie deviated from the book - and why ..

[novakru]

Finished 5 of Christopher Moore's books.

Island of the Sequined Love Nun
Practical Demonkeeping
The Lust Lizard Of Melancholy Cove
Bloodsucking Fiends(A Love Story)
Coyote Blue


Really looking forward to reading his "Lamb,the Gospel According to Biff,Christ's Childhood Pal" and "Fluke Or,I Know Why the Winged Whale Sings"

There is a new one out of his,but I can not think of the title.

[MisterSadistro]

'Booger' from Franklin E. Wales. I met him through a mutual friend and he was interested in me doing an accompanying CD based on it. I was so impressed with it that I'm working on a screenplay for it.

My IQ jumped up a few points after I finished Chapter House Dune, the last book in the saga. I read it while suffering severe depression at age 17 and it did help me thru it-no question. What better way to escape reality than into Herbert's Dune!
I have read all his Son's novel's too-very good, highly reccommend.

[The_Return]

Kiss the Girls by James Patterson- Definatly a recomended read if you're into crime/detective type novels. Having read Along Came a Spider, the 1st book in his Alex Cross saga, I am definatly becoming a fan of Mr. Patterson, and I plan to read more. He has a knack for creating creepy vilains, not so much in this as in ACAS though.


Neverwhere by Neil Gaiman- Been hearing tons of good things boput this guy, so I figured that I aughta read something of his. Definatly didnt disapoint. Very good read. The varied characters were a strong point: It seemlessly combined everything from the very human, very realistic character of Richard, to the larger-than-life characters such as Croup and Vandemar. The world he created was also breathtaking, as well as very realistic i a fantastic sort of way. In fewer words: I loved it, cover to cover.

I think Patterson is good plotwise and I actually did like Kiss the Girls. But I don't really like his abrupt writing style, it feels like the characters are never properly developed and the chapters are annoyingly short. But I still read them...LOL....hey, they are quick anyway.

[noctuary]

The Girl Next Door by Jack Ketchum. It's every bit as sad and disturbing as it's made out to be.

..pretty interesting book about Sam Raimi....

[jenna26]

Finished the second Abarat book, and I enjoyed it more than the first one, I must say. And now I am reading A Stroke of Midnight by Laurell K. Hamilton. I am actually starting to like this series more than the Anita Blake series (which to me began to rapidly go downhill after Obsidian Butterfly).

[midnite1869]

I've just been reading William Hope Hodgson series books called CARNACKI. Your basic Ghost hunter with almost realistic tellings of hantings, both real and fake within the story. These are very old books and the setting is in what seems the mid to late 1800's in England. Very good read.

[jenna26]

Finished a Stroke of Midnight. Pretty good, though I still say Hamilton needs a new editor. Too many phrases are repeated too often and there are glaring mistakes on occasion. But still an interesting, imaginative series.

Just started Velocity by Dean Koontz. Premise is good and the first chapter made me laugh a lot for some reason. :p

[midnite1869]

Velocity by Dean Koontz was good, but at the same time felt like it was rambling on looking for the ending. Mind you, the whole book was a mind flip and the ending I still wonder about. Not a bad read just a weird one if you can hang on.

[kpropain]

Roadwork- Richard Bachman aka Stephen King----hadn't read it in years, actually haven't read alot of his stuff in years, so I'm re-reading alot of his books again...

I agree, I really feel like he himself didn't know where the book was heading. Overall, I wasn't that pleased. But it was a quick read and I liked the first half.

Just started Survivor in Death by J.D Robb....yeah I read them, what of it....? :rolleyes: :p

Try"Good Omens"co-written with Terry Pratchett

Also" American Gods",this one is my fav

I don't know what my problem is, but I just can't seem to get into Gaiman's novels. Practically everyone I know loves his work, but his long form stuff just falls flat with me. His short stories (and the Sandman, of course) are a different story, however.

Back on topic: I just finished reading the Mammoth Book of Best New Horror 15, edited by Stephen Jones. Some very strong entries in this year's collection.

I could write crap like this-if this is the standard for winning the Bram Stoker Award-I'll be winning every frigging year

Ive only read one of his short stories, it was included with the copy of Neverwhere I read. Not sure of the name, but I think it was "We Can Get Them for You Wholesale". VERY cool story.

I also picked up a couple of Neil Gaiman books because I saw his name mentioned here, will start those next (and he also has a story in the fantasy collection I am reading now).

[noctuary]

The Red Church by Scott Nicholson, a story about an evil congregation in the Appalachians. Not all that impressive. For some reason, I got the feeling that it was a book that had been shelved for a few years and had been dug out for release. Some of the cultural references are a bit dated, but 2002 is the year of publication.

[noctuary]

The Walking by Bentley Little. Although I do enjoy Little's work, this novel brought to light some problems I have with it. He is a brilliant stylist, and his narrative flows very well, but he seems to have a problem with ending his books. The finale seemed a little flat and sort of unrealistically happy, as is typical of his work. The setup is probably the best of any Little book I've read though, so we can say this one was more about the journey than the destination.

just finished reading "obsidian butterfly" by laurel hamilton who is currently my favorite alternate history/vampire/monster author.

have read most of her anita blake vampire hunter series.

currently I'm reading: the federalist papers
the 48 laws of power
watership down
the complete sherlock holmes
Choice Theory
Forensics for Dummies

no understand that some of these are read off and on when I don't feel like reading anything else but for the most part all are all actively being read.

Just finished a book about a month ago called the forensics of vampires. quite good.

i'm reading a very short book - almost finished it last night - called Weight, which is a retelling of the myth of Heracles and Atlas . . . its well written but nothing to run out and read immediately.


there's also a retelling of the Odyessy by Margaret Atwood, told from the point of view of Penelope called the Penlopiad - i might read that next

Carpe Jugulum by Terry Pratchett

Just about to start re-reading Robert Joradan's 'The Wheel of Time' series.

[OctaviusHunter]

what's carpe jugulum about? that sounds really interesting.

[scouse mac]

Its part of a series of books called Discworld. Well worth a look but dont be expecting horror they are more comedy but really well written. This is a world which is a big disc sat on top the backs of four elephants who in turn are riding a giant turtle swimming thru space! This book is about a coven of witches battling it out with a family of vampires who are trying to overcome their traditional weaknesses ( such as religious symbols n stuff )

[OctaviusHunter]

that sounds kewl. I just picked up one of the books I've been missing from the anita blake vampire hunter series "the laughing corpse" -- I almost bought her newest anita blake but her newer ones aren't as much fun, not as dark and nasty with a sense of humor, she really seems to've switched her focus to "how much sex and in how many different ways can I portray it and with how many different types of creatures." I find that gets abit boring after a while.

I also bought the first in a series called "hot blood" which is an anthology exploring horror, blood, and sex -- all the best taboos.

Pratchett is awesome! I've just finished THUD!, which brings me up to date on the whole Discworld series (20+ books).

A word to those interested in reading Pratchett. Don't start at the beginning. His early work is a little weak compared to what he's been putting out during the last ten years. Start somewhere near Feet of Clay or Lords and Ladies. Then once you're hooked, the earlier work is alot of fun but you'll see what I mean.

Laughing or crying is actually quite normal,it is releasing tension in places that most people don't even realize there IS tension.
