And of course when done reading, watch THX-1138.

Just started reading this Italian edition of Richard Matheson's The Shrinking Man.

Now reading Caesar's Women by Colleen McCullough.

Hi there. I am yet to read Watership Down. Did you watch the movie? I wonder whether you think it makes it justice or not (I just watched the beginning, until they find the hill).

About the Dark Tower series, according to Stephen King himself, it is rather different from everything else he wrote, even if he ties it with other stories of his. This second book might be one of the best in the series. He can make you sympathize with the characters.

The 120 of Sodom by Marquis de Sade.

The title describes preety well what the book is about.

Nothing Lasts Forever - Roderick Thorp

Pretty damn good, was adapted into the film Die Hard. Much more darker and violent then the film, one part a young female terrorist surrenders to the main character Joe, and hand him her Kalashnikov. He just sticks his Browning Hi Power against her face and repeatedly shoots her at point black range after a flash of anger comes over him. Another he corners one terrorist and hacks him to pieces with a fire axe. The books main characters especially the protagonist Joe Leland are much more sadistic, narcissistic and brutal to others in this version. Overall I think its much better then the 1988 film and should be read in a single sitting (its only a few hundred pages) to get the best out of it.

I am a railroad.

Thank you guys for suggestions.

"The Protocol", a James Acton thriller by J. Robert Kennedy.

I'm about half way through it and would describe it as Dan Brown fanfiction. There has been a lot of bad book that have copied the "The Da Vinci Code" formula and this is one of them, it even even begin with a semi true fact about the infamous Crystal Skulls which are what the plot is about. The plot is interesting enough which is why I'm still reading but the execution is not very good. Most of the characters are there to push the plot in the direction the author wants it to go no which I guess it's what fictional character do but most authors aren't as blatant about it. The Delta Force plays an important part in the book so far and I hope it's eventually revealed that they're all on some kind of drug, not that they're not very good at what they do, they just suck at critical thinking. I know soldiers are suppose to obey order but that does not make them mindless automatons, specially if they're members an elite special force group. I would not like to be in the author's shoes if he ever meet real special force soldiers.

I do think it's worth the $1 Canadian I paid for it and the beginning of the book say the next few books in the series can be gotten for free which I might pursue if it does not involve jumping through too many hoops.

Many years ago, I read Margaret Atwood's Oryx and Crake and really enjoyed the book and the setting. So recently I finally got around to reading the sequel, The Year of the Flood. Finished that one last week, and am now reading the final book in the trilogy, Maddadam.

Assassin's Apprentice by Robin Hobb

It looks quite promising after several chapters.

I thought that was a bloody great fantasy series. Good choice.

I would also add, "Nothing To Envy: Ordinary Lives in North Korea" by Barbara Demick also has a lot of interviews with North Korean defectors who speak about their lives spent in a totalitarian regime. The aim of the book was to detail the daily lives of the interview subjects, in a town outside of Pyongyang. It's a pretty gripping book.
