What have I read some of recently? Hmm...
-A Game of Thrones - still
-Medalon - Jennifer Fallon - finished it (solid fantasy book. Nothing really special, just a good fantasy story... read if you like the genre.)
-The Pirate Coast - Richard Zachs - nonfiction - interesting book about a secret (American) mission during the War of 1812 to try to overthrow one of the pirate kingdoms of the Barbary Coast... good story, true, and a good book. :)
-The Sorceress and the Cygnet - Patricia McKillip - fantasy... interestingly written, kind of mysterious and unclear... I don't know how to describe it, but it makes it somewhat different.
-The Dark Hand of Magic - Barbara Hambly - third mediocre book in a mediocre fantasy series... I quit reading it. :)
... and I keep meaning to get back to reading Otherland. Tad Williams is such a fantastic writer...
