I recently finished reading The Name of the Wind by Patrick Rothfuss. Was a good book.

Re-reading, for the fourth time, The War of the Spider Queen series.
That's a favorite series of mine as well, I've re-read it a number of times and it is still a good read each time.

Yeah. I finished rereading the Ravenor trilogy for the third time a week or so back and saw that the newest Gaunt's Ghosts book, Blood Pact, came out recently while I was at Books-A-Million. Switched over to read that for the moment.

That was a very good book. I hope he will get moving on the sequel soon.

The sequel is done, I've understood. They're just waiting for... I dunno, a good window to publish it? Editing?

While I'm not reading it at the moment, I really should finish Forest Mage by Robin Hobb. I've been in the middle of it for... two years?

Really enjoying reading Ravenor by Dan Abnett right now after finishing Eisenhorn a few months back. Great sci-fi characters in these books.

Recently read The Lies of Locke Lamorra.

I enjoyed it.

Working on Sphere now...

Reading the Horus Heresy (Warhammer 40k) novels. Right now I'm on Galaxy in Flames and man is it brutal (violence wise not writing wise).

I just finished House of Leaves by Mark Z. Danielewski. My friend gave it to me for my birthday; it's sort of a companion piece to the album Haunted by Poe (Danielewski's sister). It's like a crazy metaphorical Call of Cthulhu horror-documentary novel. It's crazy. I loved it.

I finished reading a couple of content heavy books, so I'm taking a break by reading some Terry Pratchett again.

Someone got me one of the new Anne Rice novels. Surprised by how actually not terrible it sounded. Something about an assassin getting sent back in time by a seraph to liberate an oppressed Jewish community.

Also have several Dresden books lined up and A Song of Ice and Fire waiting to be read.

Reading the Dragon Age book from David Gaider. Not very interesting though, it's really a low-mediocre fantasy novel. I'd have expected more after such a brilliant game.

I got about a quarter of the way through an Anne Rice novel last year, but it seemed to be mostly about this 12 or 13 year old girl determined to sleep with every member of her family, including cousins and in-laws. She'd already had her way with her step-father before the book. Oh yeah, and her family were witches on her mothers side.
