Ooh, sounds good. I'm always partial to a good short story now and then...

Destiny part 2 by David Mack.

Somebody mentioned books about cats earlier, so I got out Decision at Doona and Crisis on Doona by Anne McCaffrey to re-read. Sci-fi about sentient cats.

I'm reading Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep? as well.

Just finished Lisa Smedman's House Of Serpents...actually stayed up WAY too late due to that...the danger of combining three regular-length novels into one volume, I suppose...
Great gifts for goths and pagans---custom work available, too!

Just finished Una McCormack's The Never-Ending Sacrifice, which is about the continued story of Rugal Pa'Dar (A one off character on Deep Space Nine -- of course. lol.) Actually it was quite a good read. Took me until the second chapter to get fully into the story and tended to skate around a bit at times. But very enjoyable. If anyone here is interested in S.T. books, I recommend this one.

Now actually I'm just reading some stuff that I found on some internet fiction archives. Will eventually get into another published book but I'm enjoying what I'm still reading at the moment.

I've just finished Cormac McCarthy's "The Road". I've always had an interest in fiction with a "post-apocalyptic" setting. It's very well written, but very grim.

Put it this way, the survivors were the really unlucky ones ..............................

"Bijna iedereen kon omvallen" by Toon Tellegen.

Marvellous short stories for children and adults.
Great use of language.
Alas, I think he has not been translated yet.

"The Android's Dream" by John Scalzi. Can't say yet whether it's any good or not as I have only gotten as far as the end of the first chapter.
