Your nose is buried in...?

**ShadoeWolfe** · September 29th, 2001, 10:18 AM

Ahhh...these what are you reading threads get so dern long, I felt it was time to start a new one and close the old one.

As for me, my nose is buried in The Dice Man by Luke Rhinehart... interesting little book it is... many thanks to the person that got it for me. [img]smile.gif[/img]

Sitting close by waiting for the return of my nose is Mad Moon of Dreams and Iced on Aran... but they will have to wait for now...

**Tentacled Master** · September 30th, 2001, 07:37 AM

Well, honestly... the History of Witchcraft and Demonology by Montague Summers. It's a dry read.

**VonDarkmoor** · September 30th, 2001, 10:34 AM

well ive certainly been a busy reader this week. i now on to the third harry potter book: the prisoner of azkaban.

**Canker** · September 30th, 2001, 12:31 PM

I just finished Both Avengers and Fruiting Bodies and have just started I AM LEGEND by Richard Matheson. Cool so far. I Seen the Omega Man a few years back and I had heard really good things about this book.

**topol_sheap** · October 2nd, 2001, 07:01 AM

Just finished Harry Potter and the goblet of Fire... wow what a read... can;t wait for the next now... in between however I have plans to finish the last part of lord of the rings, and read The New Lovecraft Cirlce an anthology published by Fedogan and Bremer that has a couple of BL shorties that I havent read

also waiting is New Tales of the Cthulhu Mythos, and a book called Decypher, which I should read first.

**Lagula Longarm** · October 3rd, 2001, 05:32 AM

Just finished House of Doors

whilst on holiday and have read Psychomech & Psychshere

I bought Floating Dragon by Peter Straub So when I've got a bit of spare time I'l try and read it, I've not read any of his stuff, but It looks interesting.

**Nathan** · October 8th, 2001, 12:43 PM

Finally finished Black House!! Jeez...how disappointing! I just thought some things from the SK Universe were going to be explained! Still wondering around in the stars...

(Why do I do it to myself?)

Gonna read I Am Legend now, (thanks again SpOOks) followed by On Writing by SK...surely that won't leave me hangin'!!??

Currently reading "Black Cherry Blues", by James Lee Burke.

**Exsanguinator** · October 8th, 2001, 01:45 PM

Tom Holt's 'Faust Among Equals...'

Hell has had a management buy-out... Cracking...

Speaking of cracking - also reading a history of corporal punishment...

**DaveStrorm** · October 8th, 2001, 09:51 PM

Doggedly trying to finish Lord of the Rings. I'm now about 1/3 of the way through The Return of the King. The hardest part is the book weight. I have yet to figure out a good way to read the darned thing without holding it or having it lie on some part of my body. I have to stop every 10 minutes and rest. I think maybe this is what e-books were made for . . . . nah! [img]smile.gif[/img]

I wanted to read the book(s) before seeing the first movie in December. However, now I'm afraid I'll be in a comparing mode and usually the book wins out in those contests. I just hope the movie doesn't disappoint.

**Storm** · October 12th, 2001, 11:08 AM

Still working my way through the Necroscope saga, currently on The Lost Years Vol one.

Also been reading some H P Lovecraft short stories, Dagon, From Beyond etc...

**VonDarkmoor** · October 14th, 2001, 12:05 PM

whilst on holiday last week i finished off:

harry potter (3) prizoner of azkaban
harry potter (4) the goblet of fire

thanks tops for recommending these to me !!!!

kim newman "anno dracula"

which certainly puts a different spin on the later 19th century.

im now starting on a long awaited read of:

"khai of the ancient Khem" which has been queueing patiently on my waiting stack for quite a while.

**Tentacled Master** · October 14th, 2001, 04:43 PM

Chaosium has put out a series of trade-paperback books that are collections of Cthulhu mythos stories by different authors. There's something like 30 of them now. I've decided to cycle through them again, beginning with #1: The Hastur Cycle and moving on through the last one I currently possess which is #19: The Nyarlathotep Cycle. #14, my personal favourite, is called Singers Of Strange Songs, A Celebration of Brian Lumley. It has the shorts 'City Out Of Time', 'Cement Surroundings' and 'Spaghetti' by the Master, and eight other stories by writers influenced by him. Great stuff for fans of H.P. Lovecraft AND Brian Lumley, and that's me!

**SpOOkshow** · October 14th, 2001, 07:39 PM

I'm currently adrift...

Having recently finished (for the first time) Stephen King's Dark Tower series, I'm waiting for a couple of books to arrive - James Herbert's 'Others', and Bruce Sterling's 'Schismatrix Plus'.

So I am in that awful position of having 'nothing to read'.

Sith - I know well the Chaosium books of which you speak - my faves have to be the Robert Bloch 'Mysteries of the Worm' and 'Singers'. I've only got about seven of them, but they are good stuff for fans of HPL like myself. [img]smile.gif[/img]

**Jason of Khem** · October 15th, 2001, 09:18 PM

The Khemite returns...

I'm just finishing The Spear by James Herbert.

I've been off work for the past 3 weeks on the old "Pat and Mick" and I've been blitzing through my reading back log.

Work is definitely the curse of the drinking classes.

Just ordered the 4 Harry Potter books from amazon so they'll be next on the list.

Jason

**VonDarkmoor** · October 16th, 2001, 07:32 AM

wehey Jase, looks like you were Toms next victim for Harry Potter. A good decision, one that you certainly wont regret... IMHO these books are the finest. at least now if you start reading them, you wont have a confused look on your face when Tom and myself prattle on about them in detail in 2 weeks time.

**topol_sheap** · October 16th, 2001, 08:40 AM

Well, prattling is in the works then...

ATM I am reading Where the Bodies are Buried by Kim Newman... read a couple of the shorts from this collection before (sadly the last 2).. so now reading them again and they make much more sense.

I highly recommend

TOPs

**SpOOkshow** · October 17th, 2001, 07:22 PM

Tops - Good to see someone else reading Kim Newman !

As for the moment, I am flicking through 'Consider Phlebas' by Scots sci-fi genius Iain M. Banks.

Still waiting for my books on order to arrive...
