What book did you buy today, part 2.

[CromagnonMan]

its pretty intense on the behind the scenes in big private-owned business. it also could be seen as a look at the kind of individuals who shaped modern America. Although it does have kind of rosy-tinted view of them. Nowadays big business are all corporate, greedy pigs IMO (without meaning to generalise too much) but i like to think as i read this that once they were decent human beings who felt they had a duty to future history.

its kind of an intense, weighty tome but its the kind of thing i was looking for.

the last books i bought were The Millennium Trilogy off of ebay, The Girl With The Dragoon Tattoo, The Girl Who Played With Fire, and The Girl Who Kicked The Hornets Nest.

i did that because i saw the movie last December and i couldn't wait to see what happens to these characters.

i just finished The Girl With The Dragoon Tattoo last night and i have to say, even though i knew what was going to happen in the story it still was a great read.

just finished the second book, The Girl Who Played With Fire, and just started The Girl Who Kicked The Hornets Nest.

they where both great and i can't wait to see what happens in the 3rd book.

if you haven't read these book than please do, even if you've seen the movie.

I love Moore's work.

So do I, although I'm a bit burned out on the vampire books. I'm glad to see him going in a different direction.

Coincidentally, the vampire books are by far my least favorite. I suspect they sell quite well though, so it's hard to begrudge him the income.

[Dr Will Hatch]

Darth Plagueis by James Luceno. So far I'm really liking it. The EU has it's ups and downs, but I can easily envision this one becoming one of the top tier SW books ala "I, Jedi" or The Thrawn Trilogy.

I dare say you will not regret it!

Yeah, you will not regret it. I'm not a big fantasy or sword'n'sorcery guy, but I've torn through these books since picking up A Game of Thrones the first week of March. I have about 120 pages left in A Feast of Crows with A Dance with Dragons being delivered from Amazon tomorrow. Just a fascinating world of political intrigue with the magic creeping in around the margins. A Song of Ice and Fire is like crack in that you're just going to be craving more.
