Have you tried anything new this year?

(New can refer to author, genre, style, etc.)

Oh, and a follow-up question: did you enjoy it?


I bought Jeff Somers' "The Eternal Prison", his third book about hired gun Avery Cates, but the first book of his that I've read. I liked the book, even if it was hard to follow in some areas. Not sure if I'll pick up any of his other books though.

I also picked up Jack Kilborn's "Afraid" about a covert team of trained (and psychotic) killers who crash land in a Wisconsin town, and hack and slash their way through the townspeople. I'd read a lot of his other stuff, and really enjoyed it, so I'm looking forward to this.

Next time I get some cash, I'm also going to get "Death Troopers" by Joe Schreiber. Zombies and Star Wars, 'nuff said.

Now, if only Jim Butcher's "Changes" would come out...

I was totally crushed that the Restoration Literature lecturer was on sabbatical in my year. Rebekah - 29/03/2010 03:26:07 PM 639 Views
