Keeping with the theme - am now busy with Richard Dawkin's - The God Delusion.

Its interesting reading conclusions that I had come to myself after some serious thought on the subject.

I finished reading Icebound by Dean Koontz, last night.

The world is suffering from an unending drought causing famine, death and disease. The only solution seems to lie in  giant masses of Artic ice. Scientists have planted explosive charges on an iceberg in the hopes of blasting it into useable pieces,  the ice will be converted in to water  for use in drought stricken areas. Tragedy struck when the scientists find themselves marooned on the iceberg, with  the explosive charges planted  beneath the ice. Now it is a race against the clock, they have to defuse  some of the explosives to lessen the impact if they wish to survive.

Last night I completed The Dark Tower II: Drawing of the Three. All in all it was pretty good and takes a different direction to The Gunslinger. Drawing of the Three is far more character driven than the first book and now adds more characters to Roland's saga.

Started Terry Goodkind's Debt of Bones (prequel to book 1, Wizard's First Rule). Rather confusing at the mo, I know where the events are taking place (cause of book 2) but yet to find out why. >_<

I've added the 'Wheel of Time' series to my wishlist on Kalahari, so sometime in the next 5 years i may start reading it.

I started J.D. Robb's Naked in Death last night. It's about a detective named Eve and takes place in the future. So far the setting seems like a really bad rip-off of Blade Runner...but I'm only a few pages in. It's my gf's book (she has quite a few) and decided to see why she likes the series.

It might not count, but I also [finally] started my Hearts in Atlantis audio book. It's 20 CDs long and I'm now on the second.

Her books are really good! I see a new one, Fantasy in Death is in shops.

The setting is second to the actual storyline, and they get better as the series progresses!

I'd really love to get my hands on the Resident Evil novels, but they're only available through Amazon.com

Books in the series:
Resident Evil #0 - Zero Hour
Resident Evil #1 - The Umbrella Conspiracy
Resident Evil #2 - Caliban Cove
Resident Evil #3 - City of the Dead
Resident Evil #4 - Underworld
Resident Evil #5 - Nemesis
Resident Evil #6 - Code: Veronica

Did they come before or after the games? If they came afterwards, they are almost guarrenteed to suck.

They came afterwards, but the Amazon reviews are positive. Caliban Cove and Underworld are original stories.

Picked up Debt of Bones again, while waiting for an email holting my work. Hoping to finish the book this afternoon, but there's still a lot of reading left. >_<

[NeoN]

Finished Debt of Bone this morning, longer than I had planned it would take. >_< Epic twist at the end.

Gonna be starting the 3rd Sword Of Truth book - titled Blood of the Fold.

The E book covers of Crown of Swords and The Path of Daggers  aren't too bad although on the Path of Daggers cover Elayne   looks a bit like Jean Grey.
