Okay...I'm finally getting on in the Hitchhiker's Guide series and reading The Restaurant at the End of the Universe.

Berate me all you want for waiting this long.

and....

I loved his earlier books. He wrote some great characters.

 

[santiclaws]

Just started "Ender's Game." Just started on the part where he enters the military school. So far? Wow.

Just got into Feist. He does a really great job of developing his characters. Pug is my favorite thus far. Read about 7 of his books so far over the past month. Love his story lines.

Just read Juztapositison (spelling?) by Piers Anthony and wasn't too impressed. Good idea bad execution. The idea of someone struggling to survive in 2 worlds is a great idea. Stephen King did it in The Taliman with Peter Straub.

Jimmy is a cool character. Going from a thief to a noble.

Stephen King's newest:

In his typical fashion he roped me in the first 10 pages. He has even managed to bring IT (or at least the town and characters) into the book. Interesting take on time travel so far ...

Feist falls off a little bit but like a sucker I keep waiting to see where he's going with this. He's got a good world/story layout and I'm really curious where he'll take Pug in the end.

Eaters of the dead starts slow by comparison but its a really good read as is the rest of the series. There's several concepts in Sci-fi that Card just does really well in these books.

I think the books would have been very different if he was eater of the dead.

The concept of the ansible and the philotic web is an amazing OSC original. Brilliant way to allow communication between worlds. I loved the entire Ender series as well as the Shadow series (follows Bean's life).

A little bit of light military sci-fi. I'm only about a dozen pages in, but it's hooked me.
