The Day Of The Triffids.
|
Just started readin' this one here....
Thomas Ligotti: Songs of a dead dreamer and Grimscribe |
|
Joe Abercrombie's Last Argument of Kings. The final book of an outstanding trilogy "The First Law".
|
The Purity of Death and a few magazines.
|
WHAT YOU WANT IS IN THE LIMO-Great book which details the 1973 tours of Alice Cooper, Led Zeppelin and The Who. The author feels this is really when the big mega-tours began and lots of musical history of the time is noted also.

HIDE AND SEEK-Jack Ketchum
|
|
|
ASHLEY BELL
by Dean Koontz |
Edgar Allan Poe: The Strange Man Standing Deep in the Shadows by Charlotte Montague.
|
Right now I am juggling three books. The Mystery and Lore Of MONSTERS, The More Than Complete Hitchhikers Guide To The Galaxy, and Canterbury Tales.
|
RATTLERS-Joseph Gilmore. Typical late 70's nonsense of man messing with nature for selfish gains and Nature opening a big can of whoop ass in retaliation. Lots of stock characters, sex and nasty demises. Despite this, the book is a hoot and certainly a fun way to while away a few hours.

438 DAYS-Jon Franklin's account of a fisherman lost at sea for the period listed. Third chapter in and quite good so far.
|
Pushin' my way thru the front end of S.K.'s Tommyknockers....
|
Revisiting (for about the 5th time) The Devil's of Loudon, by Huxley. Possibly my favorite book of all time.

Pandora's Box by Wesley Brian Williams
|
TRIAGE-Richard Laymon, Edward Lee and Jack Ketchum. Three authors tackle the same story with slightly different angles. OK, but not much more than that.

If everything in Amanda's life is so perfect, then why the mood swings, the obscene thoughts, the urge to harm the people she loves? What are those tapping sounds in the walls? And who's that woman following her? The mystery behind what's happening to Amanda in Come Closer is so frightening that it "ought to carry a warning to...readers." 2/10 Could not finish it. Bland writing. Characters are superficial(as in no depth). The story has been done a lot already. Think of it as a book written for adults in a young adult style and fails. http://i1032.photobucket.com/albums/...20regiment.jpg Polly Perks joins the Discworld army to find her brother Paul. "Ozzer" cuts off blonde braids, dons male garb, belches, scratches, and masters macho habits aided by well-placed pair of socks. Legendary and seemingly ageless Sergeant Jackrum accepts her plus a vampire, troll, zombie, religious fanatic, and two close "friends". The best man for the job may be a woman. 6/10 Reread. A typically(for Pratchett) fun read. Not as funny as about half of his other discworld books. Lots of commentary on sexism and gender as well as being sexist itself. So deconstructing it could be interesting or just read it for fun. |
PSYCHOTRONIC ENCYCLOPEDIA OF FILM by Michael Weldon. One of the first books I got that I started checking off titles and lending to friends to do the same. Invaluable, but no doubt, the most Dog Eared book in my collection.
