Re-reading "Battle Royale" since I got rather bored during "Cat's Cradle." Not quite sure why, I guess cause nothing had really happened where I was at, but I'll eventually go back to it and finish it.

Carl Sagan - The Demon Haunted World.

Reading it very slowly, btw. :lol:

Welding Principles and Applications by Larry F. Jeffus.
It's a text book, so it might not count, but I'm reading it voluntarily.

There's also a stack (5-6) books on Shielded Metal Arc Welding ranging in topics from the Basics, to advanced plate welding with various metals, and pipe welding.

Those are the reasons I'm taking forever reading Carl Sagan :lol:

The Tibetan Book of Living and Dying by Sogyal Rinpoche

Thoroughly enjoying it so far, and learnt a few things, which makes it a success imo :)

Out there, somewhere
R. A. Salvatore - Road of the Patriarch

It's been many many years so I think I'm going to revisit the Dragonlance books after this (and intersperse the Lost Chronicles with the Chronicles since I've never read the newer books)... either that or maybe read the Malazan books

A Game Of Thrones is sitting by my bed for about a month now, staring at me, and I haven't even started it yet... with my life being rather hard and serious themselves, I find it a bit hard to start reading a serious book (at least it seems like one, as I haven't read it yet~)
Finished Mort by Terry Pratchett not too long ago, it was a fun read.

Mainak Dhar - Alice in Deadland
Don't bother reading the book I have posted above. Great title, great concept, written very poorly. Couldn't get past the halfway point. It read like a damn article (this, and then she, and then, as she, et cetera) and was just...boring. A shame.



Onto:

Margaret Weis & Tracy Hickman - Dragons of Winter Night

Margaret Weis & Tracy Hickman - Dragons of the Dwarven Depths

At the same time or just a spead reader?

I only read the original Dragonlance series, but they were phenomenal writers... Definitely underrated for that genre. I got my wife into them back in the day and that burst her nerd cherry and now she's a huge fantasy geek :)
