aefibird Posted July 15, 2004 Posted July 15, 2004 I also have been reading a collection of short stories by Ernest Hemingway. "The Snows of Kilimanjaro" is one of my faves of his. Yes, that is an excellent short story. I read it several times before going to climb Kilimajaro and even took a book of his with me to read whilst there. "Was it really worth it? Only time and death may ever tell..." The Beautiful South - The Rose of My CologneSheffield Steelers!

SaiFightsMS Posted July 15, 2004 Posted July 15, 2004 My last reads include: Clan of the Cave Bear Seize the Night Rest in Pieces Mystery of Algiers The Cat Who Came to Breakfast Damia And I have started Fear Nothing and The Valley of Horses.
BritNoob Posted July 22, 2004 Posted July 22, 2004 Anything by Robert Ludlum (most famously the author of The Bourne Identity which p*sses on the film version from a great height).
WapCaplet Posted July 22, 2004 Posted July 22, 2004 Half-way through The Shadow Rising (4th book in The Wheel of Time series). Though I've read the series twice before, but haven't made it as far as the 9th and 10th books yet. It's too hard to keep track of everything when there's a 2 year wait between books. I just hope Robert Jordon doesn't die before he finally finishes the series. Other favorites include The Deathgate Cycle, Sword of Truth, Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy, and pretty much anything by Michael Crighton. Wap "Fighting fighting.

SaiFightsMS Posted July 23, 2004 Posted July 23, 2004 Just fineshed The Mammoth Hunters and ready to dive into The Shelters of Stone. Interestingly enough I have a book going on, on tape about Boadicea and other female Warrior Queens.
