is that any good, been looking at getting it, but 12 books is putting me off, i started the dark tower series but stephen king got to the middle of the 4th book 3 years ago and havent picked it up since

 

Most of what I read is non-IT. I'm currently reading Anathem by Neal Stephen. It's work, but seems interesting so far.

 

They are fantastic books but could have been done in half the amount of books really. Rober Jordan died after doing book 11, so 12 was partially done. He had extensive notes on what was meant to happen and it was passed to another author ... who decided it should be three books instead of one.

I stopped at 11, and when it's all finished, I'll buy 12, 13 & 14.

 

Frankie Boyle - My **** Life So Far, it was a christmas presents from my brother

 

like many, I find it tough to open up a book after closing a sybex etc.

I re-read LOTR once each year (is that weird? Probably)

Lately I have been reading The Book of Werewolves ( S Baring-Gould) on Amazon Kindle via smartphone.
I have a small boxing fitness book coming from Amazon this week, so likely to be stuck in it in the not to distant....

 

Most of the criticism it receives is fair, but it's failures stand above other books successes in my opinion (at this point).

I actually download them as audiobooks and listen to them. The narration is actually rather good compared against some notable other books that were ruined by sloppy narration.

Before this I read the mongol series by Conn Iggulden, that was also very good.

 

Just reread Flashman and the first of Spike Milligans war memoirs.
I've got a ton of books to read but no time because of mcdst, maybe when I win the lottery I'll do all the reading I want to do after I get tired of all the debauchery I've got planned.

 

The Moon's a Balloon - David Niven
Rags to Richie: The Story So Far - shane richie
Memoirs of a Fruitcake - chris evans (cost me £1.00 from pound shop)
The Difficult Second Book-Chris Moyles
On the Edge: My Story-Richard Hammond

Think there is a bit of a pattern forming
