I finished reading The Forever War by John Haldeman about a week ago. It was basically Vietnam in SPACE! with Time warps and aliens.

Now onto Forever Peace, which is pretty good so far.

I heartily endorse The Edge Chronicles. I loved them as a child, and I love them now. Spindlebugs are awesome, Chris Riddel illustrations FTW, and it's got a 'Nature versus Industry' vibe going on, like Oddworld or LoTR.

I've been reading Unseen Academicals too. It's good to see more of the UU. I don't think anyone does wizards like Terry Pratchett.

No one does wizards like Ursula Le Guin. Pratchett can suck a dick.

Please read me the series over xbox live.

I like the hoverworms.

I think I'll by the books for tattoo ideas if nothing else.

I recently read 'A Catcher in the Rye' and hated it. Holden is a repetitive, egotistic cunt who's scared of growing up in a world where everyone is phony. Why would someone write a book about it? I thought it would get better towards the end but I was horribly wrong. However, if you want to read a book about a psychologically unstable 1950's wannabe troll, then this is the book for you.

tl;dr 'A Catcher in the Rye', it sucked.

EDIT: Oh yeah and it's a timeless classic and all that, I just hated it because I'm a douche like that :tard:.

And Bloodoaks, Glisters and Shrykes.

Don't forget the Slaughterers and the Ghostwaifs, my two favourite humanoid species.

Waterwaifs are better.

I was even lazier I listened to an audio summary of Moby Dick and it was great, NotePods or something? The narrator had a great voice, very brooding, it made me think they should update the book into another film.

What is the first Edge Chronicles book? I'd like to know because they sound fucking awesome.

You should read it Beyond the Deepwoods->Stormchaser->Midnight over Sanctaphrax->Curse of the Gloamglozer->Last of the Skypirates->Vox->Freegladers->The Winter Knights->Clash of the Sky Galleons->The Immortals.

I finished "The colour of magic" just after christmas, i'm not sure if I prefer it over "Going Postal".

I'm now currently reading "Papillon" by Henri Charriere. It gets a little confusing when he's talking about something that dosen't happen for a while afterwards but it's good.

so you're one that doesn't read them in order? nothing wrong with that, i would just prefer to read them in order, as slight references are sometimes made to previous books in the series that would otherwise not be understood.

If you're refering to me which I don't think you are then...

Edge Chronicles is a series of ten books composed of three trilogies and a final novel. In chronological order the series and the books are...

The Quint Trilogy: Curse of the Gloamglozer, The Winter Knights, Clash of the Sky Galleons.

The Twig Trilogy: Beyond the Deepwoods, Stormchaser, Midnight Over Sanctaphrax.

The Rook Trilogy: Last of the Sky-Pirates. Vox, Freegladers.

However, the first trilogy completed was the Twig trilogy, which I feel is the main story, the sequal being the Rook Trilogy and the prequel being the Quint Trilogy, also the books grow up as you go along. Beyond the Deepwoods is like The Hobbit compared to The Winter Knights where anyone can and will die.

I put Curse of the Gloamglozer before the Rook Trilogy because, firstly it was the first book they wrote and secondly I feel that it goes very well with and adds a lot of character and depth to Twig's adventures... but packs the most emotional punch after you're already completed Twig's trilogy.

Book order is srs bsns.

Sliggyhash: Going Postal is in my top five favourite Discworld books whilst Colour of Magic is my least favourite...his writing style definitly improved with age and experience.

i see how it looked like that actually, seeing as i didn't look at the previous posts properly. i was asking Slighash about the Discworld series. The Colour Of Magic is the first one (as you know).

The Atheists Guide to Christmas. BAM.

I read the Discworld series as:
Mort -> Going Postal -> The Colour of Magic.

I plan on reading them in order after I finish reading Papillon I may need to re-read Mort since when I first read that I knew literally nothing of the Discworld series.

Mort is actually a good starting point as it's only the fourth book in. My advice is to read them according to characters. Guards Guards is a good place to start as it's one of the big turning points of the series, also that run ends with Night Watch which is one of the best books ever.

I'm reading Jacques Derrida's The Spectre of Marx, it's a fantastic and insightful read, if a little self indulgent.

I started with the Death trilogy. It's a good place to start, since it explains a lot of the nature of Discworld.

OK... So I read this booik that I was going to give to my sister called "Why men love bitches"....

I know all your secrets now guys! .... The book was ok but I don't really need it. My sister does though. She needs to me less emotional.



Otherwise Im reading this awesome comic named "Bones" =D ... I started reading it as a kid at the library but they only had the first few volumes. Luckily someone I know had the whole collection in a huge book, so he lent it to me =) Yey.

And what did he get for lending you his "bones" books? Hmmm? Do tell.

<.< .....

She's blushing, she's blushing.

Go in for the kill.

I KNOW WHAT BONE IS I AM ASKING WHAT HE GOT IN RETURN!

A hug. And a friend :D <3<3<3

Edit: Like.. I kidnapped a random person and handed him in to the guy.... Now they are lovers.

Crappy trade off, if you ask me.

Shut up you little Socialist.

*kill*

Anyway I know your secrets! I know that you're in fact saying "I want to sex you" according to "Why Men Love Bitches".

He thinks you look good sexing Strike Witch dressed like a cow.

x_x .. You're a disturbed child.

Why? That'd be hot.

If you're cow >: ( .. Are you a cow?

Don't be stupid.

I'm a furry.

He's fat enough.

The sheep suit is a stretch now, April's fits well enough on her but she hates it so much I have to force her in.

I like to ejaculate into a cup, and then drink it. That's why my hair has that healthy sheen.

Jizz is good for curls, I should know.

that's fucking disgusting. i'm not a prude, but christ its still fucking rank.
