"The Dark Glory War" by Michael Stackpole.

I also just finished reading an article entitled "The Geometry of Algebraic Systems and Their Exact Solving Using Grobner Bases".

I actually got my hands on a copy of Brave New World, and I suspect that I will have it read shortly. What I have read so far I have greatly enjoyed. This includes Huxley's introduction to the edition.

Congratulations on getting a copy, uc pseudonym. XD

Will be reading Agatha Christie's "Lord Edgeware Dies." It's a Poirot one.

"The Last Invasion of Canada: The Fenian Raids 1866-1870"

A history of one of Canada's more troubled periods. According to the blurb: "In the turbulent decade which produced the Canadian Confederation of 1867, a group of seasoned verterans of the American Civil War turned their attention to the conquest of Canada..."

It's something I've been wanting to find details on for a while. I'm familiar with the Battle of Ridgeway, which was fought not far from here in the Niagara region, but not any of the other actions.

I'm currently reading "Of Human Bondage" by W. Somerset Maugham. I just picked it up because I had an old copy of it and its' a classic, but I'd never read it! So far, it's pretty, good (I'm on page 100 or so), but I'm interested to see how it'll turn out!

almost done with glorious appearing, then ill start eli i guess

"The Dilbert Future: Thriving on Stupidity in the 21st Century" by Scott Adams

"A Storm of Swords" by George RR Martin from his Song of Ice and Fire series.

I'm reading the fellowship of the ring... its hard to beleive how much stuff they left out of the movies!

I just started "Fight Club," by Chuck Palahniuk. So far, the book is even better than the movie.

"Vintage: The Story of Wine" by Hugh Johnson. Basically, a history of wine and it's role in politics and economics since ancient times. It's very interesting.

Since I'm also studying for my Multimedia Signal Processing exam:
"Introduction to Data Compression" by Khalid Sayood
"Multimedia Communication Systems: Techniques, Standards and Networks" by K.R. Rao et al.

I've completed the first two books of "The Fallen." Not bad. Strange angelology, but the author does appear to have an honest respect for God. Also, I completed "Crown of Shadows" just this morning. Not worth it.

Currently reading Nor Crystal Tears by Alan Dean Foster. I have really come to love his box on the Humanx Commonwealth. Anyone else read these books? I have also read the first 5 of the Amber books by Roger Zelazny.
Big Steven Brust fan as well.

I'm 143 pages into Pride and Prejudice by Jane Austen. I do declare, that upon my word I shall fall asleep many more times before its discourse is completed.

I just began "House of Stairs" which is bizarre science fiction. It could very good, though strange, but I'll reserve any judgements for when I have completed it.

Nothing right now! By the way, that is really unlike me...
Normally I'd be reading something for the 50th time or so, but I'm trying to get better at math so I can finish all of my layouts, and it's eating up my time...
Plus all of my programs are broken. My life is so frustrating right now! :K

just started eli by bill meyer today

I finished House of Stairs too quickly... now I need reading material again. It was a very good book, though, and I recommend it to anyone who likes social science fiction.

"The Rights Revolution" by Michael Ignatieff

"In Canada, rights have become the trump card in every argument from family life to Parliament Hill. The long-standing fights for aboriginal rights and for the linguistic heritage of French-speaking Canadians have sterred Canada into a full-blown rights revoution. This revoution is not only deeply controversial here, but is being watched around the world."

A lot about the problems surrounding group rights vs. individual rights both in Canada and elsewhere in the world. It's pretty good and worth reading for those interested in these issues.

Pride and Prejudice is one of my all time favorite books.

i am currently reading

The Thief Lord
The Subtle Knife
Star Wars: Specter of the Past (for the 3rd time)
The Bourne Supremacy

I've just finished Byzantium by Lawhead, and I've started a George MacDonald book ... but I can't for the life of me remember the title ...

I only just began reading "Vampire High" by Douglas Rees. I'm about a third of the way through it after less than an hour. Hardly high reading, or even material targeted to an older audiance, but moderately amusing. It will entertain me for a single day, at least.

Not a very original take on vampires, but unique compared to all the Gothic novels we so commonly. Perhaps the best part yet has been the explanation of the original Dracula. Vlad himself and Bram Stoker were friends, etc.

"The Blue Sword" by Robin McKinely for about the tenth time... ;_; I need to go to the bookstore...

I just started the Da Vinci Code by Dan Brown today. Oooh it's gonna be a book I won't be able to put down. I can already tell.

I just finished The Murder Room by P.D. James, good mystery.

I'm in the middle of the Lord of the Rings, series, The Hobbit, and Tales and Poems of Edgar Allen Poe.

The Confessions of St. Augustine

I'm in the middle of the Lord of the Rings, series, The Hobbit, and Tales and Poems of Edgar Allen Poe.

Well, I'm put to shame. I rarely read more then 2 books at a time.


^^; Started Jane Eyre today

I just finished "Demon In My View" which is a trash novel I would recommend to no one. The author isn't bad for her age, but the book is relatively obviously just a way for her to live out her own fantasies. The main character is her to a fault, and has everything negative that Mary Sues have in fanfiction. All that saves it from complete idiocy are a few flashbacks that, taken properly, make most of the ending terribly futile.
