Can't say that I have. In fact, I haven't read any of Zahn's non-Star Wars novels.

Just finished The Caves of Steel by Asimov

Orwell's 1984. Good oldie.

I love that book. It's a terribly important work of literature, if you ask me.

The Homelanders Series

Just finished. Great set of four books.

Finished George R. R. Martin's A Game of Thrones

Good book but easy to get lost in details

I'm currently reading Anthem by Ayn Rand. It, in my opinion, is a great novella that I've enjoyed.

Just finished Agamemnon. Starting the Libation Bearers.

The Night Angel Trilogy by Brent Weeks
Really like how Weeks invents his own system for magic and that he discribes it in a very logic way unlike many other fantasy books.

Divergent and Insurgent by Veronica Roth

Heat Wave by Richard Castle.

I've been meaning to read those, but my library doesn't carry them and I can't justify spending money on em. What are your thoughts? If they live up to the show, I might just have to justify the expense.

It's essentially Castle, the book. Just with character names changed, slightly changed characters, and Rook (Castle analogue) is a magazine writer as opposed to a novelist.

So if you love Castle as I do, you'll love the book.

EDIT: I'm so silly. A rook chess piece is also known as a castle and I only just noticed this.

Just finished reading Of Mice and Men. Talk about a sad ending. Anyways, next up on my list is Balance Point by Kathy Tyers.

Ah Kathy Tyers. I really liked The Truce at Bakura by her.

I just read that hostess brand is closing so no more twinkies or zingers ever again....nooooooo! And right after Colorado legalized marijuana .. How ironic

1984 by George Orwell

Heh, that book is freakin awesome.


As for me, I'm still reading Mass Effect: Revelation. It's just...just so brilliant.

Triplet by Timothy Zahn.

Little over halfway done. Zahn has yet to disappoint me, I thought maybe his earlier work would be the first to do so, I was wrong.

The complete fiction of H.P. Lovecraft.
