I'm offering for sale my Vasagi the Suck sculpture made by Paul Brown. Images can be seen here: http://www.brianlumley.com/media/artists/paulb/paulb.html

It's taken pride of place in my living room since I bought it several years ago, but to be blunt, I need the cash and I'm running out of other things to sell! As far as I know they're as rare as hens' teeth, and I haven't seen any others up for sale on eBay at all. Probably no-one else is stupid enough to get rid of theirs! It's in immaculate condition.

I also have a full (I think!) set of Paul Stanczykowski prints which are also unavailable (apart from as individual prints), which deserve better than sitting in my cupboard. These can be viewed here: http://www.brianlumley.com/media/artists/paul/paul.html

If anyone is interested in buying either/both of these, rather than cluttering up this forum, please email me privately: psychokatuk@gmail.com

If there are no takers they'll probably end up on eBay, but I'd rather they went to a true fan like one of you 'orrible lot!

Don't get me wrong, I'm a Corvette Fan all the way.(The Pratt-Miller C7Rs, those DP cars aren't really Corvettes in my book) I was happy to see at least the #3 Corvette on the podium, but I'd rather not have it happen as the result of those kinds of late-hour mechanical bugs. Maybe it's OK, though. Corvette Racing #4 did go out after a brake pedal return spring failure caused a bailout wall hit in hour, what, 10?

And, Holy COW! Action Express #5 walked away and never looked back. That was a demoralizing victory for them...and with a broken front sway most of the race!?! GTFO.

My mom was looking for something new to read so I recommended the Sword of Shannara Trilogy to her late last year and decided to take it for a spin again since it was on my mind. I had never read the first book (Sword), but absolutely LOVED the second (Elfstones) and third (Wishsong).  I decided it was time to dig in and do it right...so for the last several months I have been working my way through the entire Shannara anthology. It's a huge undertaking but I'm progressing at a steady pace.

I'm currently working on Book 16. "Morgawr", Voyage of the Jerle Shannara #3 of 3.

If you're not at all familiar, the Shannara series is very firmly rooted in fantasy. Swords and sorcery, gods and demons...with a subtle post-apocalyptic twist. With the exception of a few origin stories, the majority take place in a far-future Earth where technology has destroyed Man as we know it and has been replaced by magic and multiple races.

There are about 30 books in the series, so I've still a ways to go before I intend to move on to other authors.  We'll see. Maybe I'll make it, maybe I won't.  I've got a long list of things I want to read.  My mom is pressuring me to read Dan Simmons' "Drood" and a few others.

What have you been reading?

One of my bucket list items was to one day travel to his museum in Switzerland and see his work in person.   

Continue on, Mr. Giger. Dream, design, and paint the most grandiose surreal works that one could never begin to accomplish in life...and pimp slap the pompous Salvador Dali when you get a chance.

Anyway, everyone I used to post with on here is now on face book... but for an update, once again things have changed... I'm a dad since last year, christmas was awesome, and life is good.

Hope everyone else is doing well and speak soon,

Tom

New year, new post. I hope it's a happy one for you all.

I remember when I joined 13 years ago (I know - how long)... and the forum was vibrant with people chatting. I don't know where you've all gone (some of you I do), but it's a shame that there's been no posts about christmas, new year, or what people are watching, listening to or reading.

I hope I'll hear from some of you - I know some of you I will hear from, as I have you as great friends in the real world... but others I know I'll never hear from again... they are lost in the time that's gone by and the Keogh Cons that have been and gone.

What a ride folks - one really never to be repeated.

Anyway, happy new year, and I hope it will bring all you want

Speak to you (or see you) soon,

Tom

I need some recomendations, but good ones people, Feist is boring me although I'll prob still get the new one and I'll obviously be getting Brians newy, but I have no idea where else I need to take my wandering mind!

I'll start us off and recommend 2,

The first being the Steig Larsson's millennium trilogy which really lives up to the hype, and 2 an oldie in Ameriacan Gods, which is possibly one of the most amazing books I've ever read, can't wax lyrical enough about this book it's just pure magic on paper!

MERRY CHRISTMAS:grin::grin::grin:

So, I'm re-reading Robert Jordans The Wheel Of Time. I'm on book 6, Lord of Chaos and loving it. It's been ages since I read this series last and even though it doesn't have an ending which is very frustrating I still love it.

So what about the rest of you, what are you reading?

Thanks
