recommended for: anyone not afraid of aliens ;)

Pinkdoom said:
"This was the first Dean Koontz book that I've read, and it was recommended to me by a friend who absolutely loves Koontz. It took me a little while to get into it, because there were two plot lines and only one of them intrigued me, but once I kept ...more

Agents of Light and Darkness: A Novel of the Nightside (Paperback) by Simon R. Green bookshelves: read-enjoyed |
my rating:

recommended for: those looking for a quick sci-fi/fantasy read
read in August, 2007
Pinkdoom said:
"Very enjoyable, a quick read that grabs hold and doesn't let go. Green's take on angels, just who and what they are, where they come from, and their purpose/s made the book fun, and his John Taylor is always a snarky mishmash of power, darkness, and...more

Nightingale's Lament: A Novel of the Nightside (Mass Market Paperback) by Simon R. Green |
my rating:

recommended for: sci-fi/fantasy fans who enjoy some dark angst
read in August, 2007
Pinkdoom said:
"Certainly an improvement on the first book by Green...a fun little story that throws you into the heart of the Nightside and can be read in one sitting. Green has a strong protagonist in John Taylor, with enough snark and curiously dark powers to ma...more

read in August, 2007
Pinkdoom said:
"It could have been so much better. A strong first-person narrator, intriguing storyline..that fell flat towards the end and left a bit of a jumbled mess of the ongoing plot lines. It could have been good, it could have been great.
It was mediocr...more " |

I want to apologize for the all the recommendations from me yesterday. I wanted to share the Stoker Award news, and I only pressed the send button once--I'm not sure what happened to create so many messages. Some weird glitch.
Argh...this is terrible...
Again, I'm very sorry.

Here’s wishing you a nifty New Year filled with noiseless noses, neato nicknames, noble Nebraskans, gnarly narcoleptic nebulas, and novel novels about nut-eating narwhals and novercaphobic gnats.
-Jeremy :)
P.S.—I’m currently offering autographed/personally-inscribed copies of my novel, Vacation, with free shipping for those in the US. If there’s anything you could do to help me spread the word about this, I’d really appreciate it. Feel free to click here for details:

Thanks for sharing, Pinkdoom! That's quite an awesome list there. I've never read Turning Angel, but I'm definitely going to check it out. Some of my favorites are 1984, Slaughterhouse-Five, A Clockwork Orange, and The God of Small Things.
Here’s wishing you a yippee-filled Yuletime overflowing with yard-long yams, yapping yoyo-yanking yetis, yak-milk yeast-cakes, and yellow yarn-yielding year-end yard-gnomes.
-Jeremy :)
Favorite book of all time? Yeah, that's not hard ;) Instead of answering that directly, I'll give you a roundabout answer instead. I think the one book that sticks out in my memory as being one that I could read over and over again is Greg Iles' Turning Angel. As far as modern fiction goes, it's one of the best I've read in a long, long time. If you're talking what's referred to as "classic literature", I really enjoy Robert Louis Stevenson's The Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde, Oscar Wilde's The Portrait of Dorian Gray, and several short stories by Edgar Allen Poe.
And now that I've rambled on and on...what about your favorites?
Hi Pinkdoom!
If you don't mind sharing--I was wondering, what's your favorite book of all time?
Here’s wishing you a weekend filled with wacky whims, wonderful weirdness, and well-disposed werecats.
