Y'all see the man hanging out of the spaceship with the really big gun? Now I'm not saying you weren't easy to find. It was kinda out of our way, and he didn't want to come in the first place. Man's lookin' to kill some folk. So really it's his will y'all should worry about thwarting.

We're Literary 2: To Read Makes Our Speaking English Good  

There's more to life than watching Buffy the Vampire Slayer! No. Really, there is! Honestly! Here's a place for Buffistas to come and discuss what it is they're reading, their favorite authors and poets. "Geez. Crack a book sometime."

Well, page 30, with the banker and Miss Manette. But I'll look for Miss Pross.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

I always had the vague idea that I kind of liked Tolstoy, but I'm reading "The Kreutzer Sonata" and hating it.

If I only had a brain...

OK, I'm done with Smoke and Shadows. Any Tanya Huff fans around who haven't bought a copy yet and would like one?

What series is that in, Matt?

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"

What series is that in, Matt?

I'm not Matt, but I can tell you that it's tangential to the Blood series, in that the main character is Tony, who is Henry's sometime partner/food source.

(sorry, if that's not coherent, I'm a little tired)

move out and draw fire

OK, I read Curse of Chalion in one day, and have just ordered Paladin of Souls. Damn. I'd given up on there ever being good fantasy again.

Memory jog: This article [link] reminds me of a short story where this guy builds a dancing automaton, and its partner can't get out of its embrace and dies. Sort of a modern Red Shoes. Is this familiar to anybody? I thought it was maybe M.R. James or Le Fanu.

Raquel! I also read The Curse of Chalion all in one piece yesterday.

I haven't trusted science since I saw the film "Flubber."

I picked up Paladin of Souls this weekend and got through about half on the plane (or in various airports).
