Just got done reading "Murder in Shushoran", the fan fiction by Darryl Whitney. Not bad, and always a pleasure to have Mieu as one of the main characters.

I just finished "Storm Warning" by Billy Graham.

Next, I'll probably read "Evidence of the Afterlife..The Science Of Near-Death Experiences" by Jeffrey Long, & Paul Perry.

Berlin - The Downfall 1945 by Antony Beevor. Excellent history book.

Last month I read the first book in the Inheritance Cycle which was Eragon, I enjoyed it and I’m now reading the second book called Eldest I'm about half way through it.

Currently, I'm reading "Home...A memoir of my early years" by Julie Andrews!

This is the actress/singer Julie Andrews who was in the movie "Sound Of Music".

Great book so far.

I'm currently not reading anything, but I just finished some books.
As for novels I just finished the book version of Metal Gear Solid 2: Sons Of Liberty, it was pretty good, if you've played the game theres nothing new, and if you haven't played the game, it might get very confusing.
As for comics I just finished the Scott Pilgrim series, I absolutely loved these books, anyone who like comedies about relationships/music/video games/kung-fu should check it out.

I was lucky enough to walk into my local GameTraders store last weekend, and see they had a huge collection of Zelda Manga imported from the US. I picked myself up both Oracle of Season and Oracle of Ages (I own both games, so I figured I should get both of the books). I have just finished reading the Oracle of Seasons book which I loved, I'll be reading Oracle of Ages maybe tonight if I remember. I was quite impressed with all the characters from the games they had in there and how much more story was fleshed out. Great stuff. :up:
