I liked the movie as well. The book series is a good, fun read. I also enjoyed his Carson of Venus books, so check those out as well once you finish the John Carter series.

Thank you for the suggestion! I'll take a look into them.

How Not to Write a Novel - it`s a fun read.

I'm not much of a sci-fi person, but those rock. All his books do, imho.

YES. Very much so.

I'm unwilling to flip through 16 pages of this, but I am currently reading Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance by Robert M. Pirsig. I hear that various educational institutions use this as one of their required books, but I certainly did not have that chance. Either way, it's quite an interesting read with several quotable passages although there are parts that seem a little too 'fantastic' (as in magical realism) for my taste.

Just beat War and Peace. I can really say that it's pretty fantastic book but damn, Leo Tolstoy sure love to ranting at some points where it get in the way of the story. Still, it's very fascinating reading and I'm very happy to experience it.

A word of advice for those whose is intimidating by War and Peace: Just read 1 chapter at a time. Each chapter is very short at about 50 pages at the most. It's very readable with lot of themes that are still relevant to modern society.

I highly recommend it for those who want to try it. I got free ebook copy off of Project Gutenberg website, if you're curious.

My next book will be Best Served Cold by Joe Abercrombie. I've been addicting to gritty fantasy books as of late with me just completing Game of Thrones and First Law Trilogy.

Currently reading Fallen by Tim Lebbon.

Great fantasy book so far.

Sharp's Tiger by Bernard Cornwell.

Historic genre, set in India during the Siege of Seringapatam, 1799.

Was given as a gift, not normally the type of book I'd read. Must say, quite enjoying it :).

The Hobbit
Good Omens
Looking for Group Issue 22
Marvel Zombies 1-4
Dragonriders of Pern
Elric of Melniboné
and Star Wars: Darth Plagueis (surprisingly REALLY good but taking my time on this)

Wuthering Heights by Emily Brontë

I also received this as a gift, it's not the kind of book I usually read, but enjoyed it immensely. What an excellent storyteller.

The Pillars of the Earth, By Ken Follett. About halfway through.

It's okay. This is supposed to be some kind of epic but I've read a few other things of his that were written better. And it doesn't compare well to anything written by, say, Neal Stephenson.
