James Alexander | 2 comments Currently reading Under the Empyrean Sky by Chuck Wendig. Highly recommend his Blackbirds series. King fans will enjoy it.

Love Firestarter thought it was rather underrated by King fans.It might not be an epic but it entertains which is the main reason I read books.

Ross Buffa Night Shift is one of the best.


message 267: by Rainier (new)

Rainier | 22 comments I started reading The Shining. So far, I like the Hallorann character. Every time I smell oranges, I'm going to get freaked out.

message 270: by Michelle (new)

Michelle (shelld79) | 44 comments I think I'm about to start reading The Gunslinger (The Dark Tower, #1) by Stephen King again as I've been inspired by another group who have just started reading The Dark Tower series.
I read this at least 10 years ago when it was first released I think so am a bit excited to be starting it again.

'Enjoy!! I have Feast of Crows on my nightstand as well :) "


Thank you! I try not to read too fast, because I ordered the 5th one and I will be getting it in November. I don't like to wait too long between books ( and I am not sure when book 6 is out) ;)


message 274: by Malina (new)

Malina | 304 comments I know what you mean!! I don't want to start mine yet, although if you wait to long in between books you forget some things especially with so many different story lines


message 275: by Dimitrios (last edited Aug 29, 2013 05:34PM) (new)

Dimitrios Chytiris (dimis) Yeah! he has a lot going on in his books :D
Sometimes I wonder where he is taking the story and what crazy thing he is going to do next. To be honest he's pretty unpredictable, he chopped off the heads of many of my very fav characters so far hehehe... But at least I see Deanerys is still alive (who knows for how long though) :D


message 276: by Malina (new)

Malina | 304 comments I agree!!


message 277: by Rainier (new)

Rainier | 22 comments The third book (of Song and Fire and Ice) is crazy!

Yes yes, it is :D
but u mean plot? events?


message 279: by Rainier (new)

Rainier | 22 comments Yes, the events....didn't want to speak of specifics because I don't where you are in the book.


message 280: by Dimitrios (new)

Dimitrios Chytiris (dimis) I have also seen the tv series, I know of some unfortunate things that happen from the show but in the book I am only 1/5 in so nothing too macabre yet :D

I agree.Night Shift is the best collection of King stories I have read.Some to look forward to are Quitters Inc., The Ledge,the last story is specially moving(I had forgotten its name) & a lot of others.It is the only collection of King stories that according to me can measure up to some of his best novels.There are also a couple of tales in that book that have a link with Salem's Lot.

Night Surf in this collection is my favorite short story by King .

Costas Ioannou (greek_tornado) | 77 comments I've only read the first story so far (i'm kinda slow due to university exams getting in the way) Jerusalem's Lot, and it was very good. It reminded me of 'Dracula'.

I love Night Surf. If I can remember correctly it is connected to the Stand as a short side piece of the story.

Yes Ross ... Night Surf is where "Captain Trips" made its debut ...


message 296: by Shell (new)

Shell (shellcampbell) | 341 comments Well there you go, I never noticed the connection... maybe because I read Night Shift before I read The Stand.
