Joseph’s comments from the Tadpool group.

I constantly win books, I just got the David Baldacci book The Escape last week, and today I got the email stating I won The Flash: A Celebration of 75 years. I can't wait to read that one, cause it has comics from back in the 40s.

I have also won Mercury: An Intimate Biography of Freddie Mercury, Cosby: His Life and Times, V-Wars Volume 1: Crimson Queen, Raise the Bar: An Action-Based Method for Maximum Customer Reactions, Mercy Kill (Star Wars: X-Wing, #10), and Rocks: My Life in and out of Aerosmith.

I have been listening to the Gorean Saga novels, they are a mixture of Sci-Fi/Fantasy dealing with a Counter Earth on the opposite side of the Sun, rotating around just in time that the Earth cannot see it. It is ruled by aliens called the Priest Kings and there is slavery and lots of fighting in it. I have been enjoying them, but they are not for everyone. I just finished the book, Priest Kings of Gor, and about to start Nomads of Gor. There are 33 books currently in the series.

Traci and Neill, it was the American Gods version that was in pdf form from the Humble Bundle.

I recommended American Gods to a friend of mine, and then I asked her a week later what she thought and she said she stopped reading it cause she had issues understanding the language in it. I haven't had time to try and read it, but I know you guys love Neil Gaiman.

I haven't had much time to read lately with work, I have started many many books, but I think the last book I read was a reread of Sword of Storms.

Just finished Obama's America by Dinesh D'Souza

The most prominent in my memory is Hannibal by Thomas Harris, I got this in hardback on the day of release, havin..."

I would agree, and what made me even more angry was the butchering the movies did to the books. Totally changing the story to how THEY wanted it to end and not how it was supposed to end, like in the book.

well, recently finished 11/22/63, currently trying to finish A Feast for Crows.
