Finished reading She by Henry Rider Haggard, forerunner of the fantasy, the "lost worlds" and the modern adventure genres. If you love Indiana Jones, fantasy and strong, crazy&almost immortal women, this is the story for you (4/5).....

I'm re-reading the Farseer Trilogy by Robin Hobb. I read it years ago. It's still good, I'm happy to report.

The Return of Dr. Fu Manchu (inspired by a GURPS Pulp game)
The Mountains of Madness (HP Lovecraft)
Intermittently, the occasional Holmes story
Cerebus

Rum Punch by Elmore Leonard.

This is my second book of his (Cuba Libre was the first I read - loved it), and I'm thoroughly enjoying the writing style and the stories. I'll definitely be buying more of his work.

Before that, I read Neal Stephenson's The Big U, a send-up / satire of large university education. It was okay. His first book IIRC and the style matches some of his later work, but it got pretty goofy. Granted, it wasn't intended to be serious, but it took an odd turn about halfway through. Fun read, but definitely a WTF? book.

Just finished Tuf voyaging, not bad. Some of the later stories made me a bit uncomfortable though

Just finished Warbreaker by Brandon Sanderson. I'm a bit fed of fantasy so I'll probably start something by Clarke or Heinlein. Space Opera never gets old.

Just finished The Difference Engine by William Gibson and Bruce Sterling. A well told story in a brilliantly crafted world.

Just started The Chronicles of Amber written by Roger Zelazny. Must say - very interesting story.
If you love fantasy and you've never read those novels you should definitely take a look at it.

I started reading The Hitch Hiker's Guide to the Galaxy: A Trilogy in Five Parts. I've read the books before in finnish ages ago. I never thought it was as amazing as others seem to think and figured it was due to a poor translation, which is why I got it in english this time. Now, after reading around 200 pages of it I realized it's the British humour, which has never been my cup of tea. It's not like the book is bad or anything, I just don't find it that funny.

Before that, I read Dan Simmons' The Terror. The fight against dwindling resources and extreme weather was the most interesting part in my opinion. Some sections of the book were a bit too long, probably written to give some backstories to the crewmembers. The ending was ok, but a bit dissappointing. Not much horror in there either, but that didn't bother me.

Last book I read was Tom Clancy's Bear and the Dragon.
Currently reading Pride and Prejudice.

Tishomingo Blues from Elmore Leonard
God, I love crime fiction! Especially from someone like Elmore Leonard.

Khan of Mars. Very enjoyable read. Currently only available to backers of Dinocalypse Now.
