Rereading a number of Stephen King novels, that are supposed to be
related to the (soon to be released) conclusion volumes of the Dark
Tower series.

Me too, Jamie! I'm halfway through "Wizards and Glass" right now. Can't
wait for the new one.

I, too, like children's/young adult literature. I've read the Artemis Fowl
series as well as the Potter books. "Holes" was good, as was the "Remnants"
series by K. A. Applegate. I highly recommend them all.

Wizards and Galss was SUCH a dissapointment to me after waiting for so
long. I'm really a little discomfited with how King is now trying
desperately to make sure that ALL of his prior work fits in with the
Gunslinger series, no matter how thin the conenction.

A little while ago I decided to check Amazon to see if a pair of my favorite
authors had a new book out and was happy to see that they did (I still have to
wait for the paperback version, but now I know there will BE one). The authors
are W. Michael Gear and Kathleen O'Neal Gear. They write great novels about
prehistoric Native Americans. The titles of most of them are "People of the
_______"; eg, People of the Wolf, People of the Lakes, People of the Sea, etc.
The newest book: People of the OWL. Well, DAMN, that's US!

(BTW, if you are interested in novels of prehistory like these, also check out
the First Americans series (even better than the People series) by William
Sarabande and two trilogies by Sue Harrison.)

Right now, I'm re-reading the Silmarillion and a piece that explores the
racial themes of Ralph Ellison's Invisible man.

HA - I guess I'm not that deep, Jakey. I like all his books, no matter what
the connection. I just hope we're not disappointed after waiting all these
years for the 5th one!

Did I mention that you have King's eyes? I mean, your eyes look like
King's?

See but that's the worst part- I'll have to go buy a new copy of the fourth
one before I can read the fifth one because it's been so long.

Grrrrr... have the same problem with JK Rowling, lol.

Am I the only person who thinks The Silmarillion makes really good
in-flight reading?

And just for fun....what is everyone else reading?

just about done with Jim Thompson's "The Kill-Off" and when that's
finished i'll go back to "Titus Groan" by Mervyn Peake, which i started
but decided to take a short break from.

I'm about halfway through re-reading "Good Omens" by Neil Gaiman and
Terry Pratchett, and then I'll probably re-read "Aegypt" by John Crowley.
