I started the third book in the Robin Hobb "Farseer" trilogy last night, and can't wait to get back to it when I get home.

Getting back on topic, I just last night finished The Ill-Made Mute by Cecilia Dart-Thornton, and that was quite an amazing read. It is set in a rich world peopled by the beings of Celtic mythology, and is written in very eloquent language. I had trouble getting into it at first, because I did...

Oh Brian, you do have to find a copy and read it. It is a marvelous book......raises interesting questions about many things.

Brave New World is pretty dated, isn't it? Designer drugs and virtual reality, sex as entertainment.....it's all with us.

I guess I am really odd, but the pirate Kennit in the Liveship series was sexy for me. Also,Capt. Kirk (The Old Series) and Capt. Archer of "Enterprise." John Crichton is dead sexy!

I fairly raced through Mad Ship and am now on the third one, Ship of Destiny. Great reads!

Elric of Melnibone......disturbing, thinking person's hero/antihero? Vivacia.....the young Liveship in Ship of Magic. The woman protagonist in Harriet Arnow's The Dollmaker.......strongest woman in all of literature. Demetrius in The Robe.......the loyal slave/friend of Marcellus.

I am just starting my first Robin Hob, the first in the "Liveship" series.

I believe the film stars Tom Hanks and Melanie Griffith. IT's not one of the more memorable films I've ever seen!

I enjoyed Bonfire of the Vanities. As is often the case, the book is so much better than the film, IMHO.

I am a bit disappointed by The Book of Shadows, not that it isn't well--written but it is just a bit more explicit and violent than I expected. I'll stick with it for a while longer, though, try to be fair.

I just finished Cavern of Black Ice by J.V. Jones and have started The Book of Shadows by James Reeve (I think that's his name). After that, I have a novel about Xenophon's troops called The Ten Thousand which looks promising.

I am currently reading The Barbed Coil by J.V. Jones and am enjoying it greatly. Her writing impresses me, and I plan to read more by her.

I adore Robin of Sherwood....watched it when it was a series on Showtime years back. My dauighter bought me a boxed set of the first two seasons, but it is unfortunately unplayable because it is in PAL format. But I love to look at the pretty pics of Robin and Heane on the box cover! I love...

I really love "Wrath of Khan" and think it is the best, but I also like "Search for Spock" a great deal. "Voyage Home" is great, campy stuff, but I have to put Khan first. I haven't seen "Nemesis" yet and am looking forward to it.
