Re: I figured it was time for this again
YAY!!! Another Dune fan!! You may be interested to know that there is a Dune topic in General Fantasy started by Fat Middle. It is a little stale right now though.
I too am rereading LOTR....not too far into it though, Fellowship....chapter Many Meetings. Where are you? |

Re: I figured it was time for this again
In my reading, the Fellowship has just left Lothlorien.
Thanks for the info about the Dune discussion, I will have to check that one out. I have meant to ask you, anduin, is your sig from Wind in the Willows? I know it is familiar, but I have not yet been able to place it definitely. |

Re: I figured it was time for this again
I finished Iron Fist this morning. I have read all Xwing books before, I just needed something like that after some heavy books on history. This evening I started reading Raymond E Feist´s Rage of a Demon King. I had forgotten how fast paced the action in Feist´s books is.
I wish the library here could get the first books in the Dune series. All this talk about them has made me interested in reading them . |

Re: I figured it was time for this again
Indeed, I have been absent but only from this board. Seems by the time I check all of the boards (as reader, poster and in some case moderator) I begin having isp problems with connecting to Entmoot and invariably give up. Thus I haven't actually been even able to read the board until recently. Let's see how long that lasts.

I've decided to finish "Claudius the God" by Robert Graves so I'm reading that now too.

Re: I figured it was time for this again
Right now I'm reading Sahara by Clive Cussler... not really a deep or meaningful novel in any way, but entertaining. Better than Clancy.

Mr. Spock......
.....I understand, too bad you don't have more time. Still, it is cool when you stop by unexpectedly.

Re: New Forum
I have finished Rage of a Demon King as well as Shards of a Broken Crown. Right now I´m reading Waterland by Graham Swift, an excellent novel about a history teacher trying to get his students interested. This is probably the best book I´ve read in a long time.

Re: what are you reading right now?
I'm rereading the Pern series by McCaffrey. I hadn't even picked the books up in 15 years, but they were still on the shelf so I figured what the heck. I'm up to The White Dragon and still find the series entertaining. But I think I enjoyed it more when I was younger.
Dunno what I'll read next. Probably good ole JRRRT |

Re: what are you reading right now?
i too am rereading LotR, but not geting very far (you'd think after graduating from highschool & not working in the summer i'd have more time!) - they just crossed into Rivendell. i'm also reading Tehanu by Ursula K Leguin & Sandman: The Kindly Ones (i always read multiple books at a time - i dont' know why)
i stole a copy of Sil from my mom, & will probably read it on that ungodly long flight i'll be on this summer. also Dune has been on my "find & read this" list for a long time - i keep telling myself i'll start it, btu havne't yet. aryne * |

Tehanu?
Hey, isn't "Tehanu" the name of the guy who helps run TOR.N? Weird that he wouldn't select a LotR name for that kind of site...

Re: Tehanu?
don't know about TOR.N...
but i heard somewhere that JRRT used the name Ea for a part of his world - UKLG (she has weird initials - reminds me too much of Ugluk) has an island in Earthsea named Ea also. this is probably in Sil, which i REALLY NEED TO READ! aryne * |

Re: Tehanu?
I´m reading a very good book on Swedish history now.
Maybe I should reread Silmarillion. It´s been too long since the last time and I remember I thought ut was more interesting than LOTR . |
