Someone actually brought me the novelisation of the movie Alien VS. Predator on my last hospital stay, and I just read it. It was WAY more entertaining than the movie....I wish I would have just read the book and not seen the movie.

I'm reading "The Richard Laymon Collection volume 1: The Cellar, The Beast house, Midnight Tour".
I brought it in Amazon UK. Itīs the first time I read Laymon and so far (I'm in the first of those books) I'm really enjoying it! By the way: Why there aren't omnibus of the works of Laymon in the US? The omnibus that I brought, The Beast House Trilogy, is part of a new collection of Laymon in the UK, with almost all the books from Laymon, with good print quality and for a very good price.

I love Richard Laymon's books. I am on a Guy N Smith kick at the moment - reading Satan's Snowdrop!

Here's a testament to how much actual work my job entails (and how fucking long my shifts usualy are). I finished 2 books that Id been working on today:
- Ticktock by Dean Koontz - Smoke and Mirrors by Neil Gaiman Ticktock was very good until the ending, as with most of Koontz books. Id even go so far as to say this is one of his worst endings to date, surpassing the even muddled mess that Cold Fire sunk into. He always builds up alot of questions in the plot, but I dont think he even knows the answers himself. It always results in the plot completly unravelling at the end, no exceptions here. As awful as the ending was, I actually would consider this one of his better novels, solely due to the great characters. Deliverence Payne is, IMO, the greatest human chanacter the man has ever came up with (I say "human" because he will never surpass Einstein the dog from Watchers). Absolutly hilarious, and contrasted with Tommy (the "hero")'s seriousness, I found myself laughing out loud more than I would care to admit. The monster was also damn good for most of the book....as I say, unravelled badly at the end though. ^ Wow, that wound up alot longer than I was intending. Sorry... As for Smoke and Mirrors, I liked it. Ive been reading it on and off for close to (over?) a year now, but I read over half of it today. It's a collection of short stories and poems, so as can be expected not eveything is great. The majority are very well written though, I highly recomend checking this out.

I'm reading Stinger by Robert McCammon. It's a very entertaining book, and I would LOVE to see it made into a movie. Aliens usually scare the hell out of me, and these aliens have a whole lot of potential.
