Well, having finished the Dresden Files again (and now waiting until March for Ghost Story) I decided to give Asimov a try. So my reading over the past month has been:

Locclo, keep an eye out for Butcher's short story compendium in October.

It's going to feature a short story never printed before, picking up exactly 15 minutes after the end of "Changes". Supposedly, it's being told through Murphy's eyes so...

Started reading "The Sabbat Worlds" anthology.

ADB once again delivers with "Regicide". And the introduction to his short story by Dan Abnett was hilarious(HI DAN!).

We love our superheroes because they refuse to give up on us. We can analyze them out of existence, kill them, ban them, mock them, and still they return, patiently reminding us of who we are and what we wish we could be.

Can I just say "HAH! I HAD THE SABBAT WORLDS COLLECTION A MONTH BEFORE YOU!"?

Not really interested in "The First Heretic", but man.

How did you like "Regicide" in the Sabbat Worlds anthology?

Currently reading The Fall of Hyperion by Dan Simmons. It's the second book in a 4 book sci fi series. I must say the storyline is fantastic so far. This guy has a great imagination. I will be taking a break in November though to read the next Wheel of Time novel. I just want to know what happens!

Just finished Animal Farm, fairly good for a short read and the political subtext is great.

Im currently reading Atlas Shrugged by Ayn Rand, its a great story even if the philosophy is in parts absymal and ludicrous.

Also finished the Space Marine Battle Novels which were excellent, though Im not sure which I liked more Rynn's Wolrd or Hellreach.
