Re: What are you reading?
just finished reading a certain well known book about a search for some sort of religious cup type object
after all the rave reviews and stuff i didn't think it was very well written although the story itself is
i won't be getting any of his other books and as the film is meant to be a direct word for word copy of the book i don't think i will be watching that either
am now reading Tour De Force about the 2004 Tour De France

Re: What are you reading?
I'm reading 'Judas Unchained' - the second part in the Commonwealth Saga, by Peter Hamilton - it's a weighty read with each book 1200+ pages, much on a par with his previous 'Nights Dawn Trilogy' - good read so far, good Sci Fi

Re: What are you reading?
I haven't read a novel for a long time, but want to find one.... I like John Grisham, and a bit of Chris Ryan (although it all tends to be fairly samey)
anyone got any recommendations??

It's just a shame some of his other books are such pants - the Greg Mandel series, in my opinion was rubbish, misspent youth, boring. Fallen dragon was good though...

Re: What are you reading?
HAve just been reading the novelization of Superman Returns. A really fantastic story. Can't wait to see the movie.
