My son just finished the first book, he's ready to get the next one. He loved it and it sounds like it's pretty good, daddy might have to read them now!

I just finished the first four books of Game of Thrones. When the show came on I didn't realize it was a book series, and honestly, the show is so well done, I feel like I read the first book twice!

I'll wait for book 5 to come out on paperback before I buy it. Or I'll get the audio book version if I take a long trip this winter.

I just plowed through Infection by Craig DeLouie which is probably one of the *best* zombie books I've read (great pacing, and reads like you're watching a movie).

And now I'm starting in on The Passage by Justin Cronin which came highly recommended by many friends, and appears to be an ongoing series.

I have other books I'm actively flipping through, but not really reading or getting into because they are too heady for me. (electronics books that are currently over my head)

I'm about halfway along Swann's Way, which means I've barely started reading Proust.

For fun and . . . uh, distraction . . . there's a copy of James P. Hogan's first 3 Giants SF novels in my "private reading room", underneath the sink.

I will agree that this was a very good book. Can't wait for the others to come out. I am currently reading The Walking Dead : Compendium One. It is the first 48 issues of the comic series. So far it is awesome. Can't wait for the show to resume in about a week.

So far the show can't touch the comics.

But...if they don't hold back, and really drive home the grit and barbarism that is man without government/authority/protection....

Ratification by Pauline Maier. It's a very well-written history of the debate on the Constitution in 1787-88.

I found my copy of Robert Bly's "Iron John", so I started that again. Great concept, but a little out there. So many I want to read.
