What book are you reading at the moment?

[chris_irwin]

I am legend, Richard Matheson,..

bit dissapointed,...3/4 of the way thru and cant see it getting any better,...

think it was written in the 50s tho so,...

probably a rare example of the film outdoing the book,...

Just finished reading that last night. I found it quite interesting, totally different to the film. I won't give the game away, but the story was ultimately a bit pointless. I think it was supposed to induce thought more than anything, kind of reminded me of 1984 but no where near as good...


Edit: Just realised this thread is old... you've obviously already read it I guess

I'm away for the weekend but send me a message with your number and I'll give you a shout next week. Some are quite readily available but some are like chickens teeth. I have a very rare black and white copy of Ancient Cattle that took a long time to find. Best wishes, Glyn.

Working my way through the The Earths Children series of books by Jean M Auel about to start the 5th one The Shelters Of Stone tonight. Hope to have it finished before the new final book in the series comes out.

I read the first book in that series, and started the second, and just got fed up with how amazing 2 people could be, so I didn't continue reading. ^^

 

[naefearjustbeer]

Yeah they do appear to of discovered or invented so many things to help them as they go but I find it is a very readable series of books. Read them all before just re reading them in advance of the new book coming out
