Bennyworld Posted January 4, 2014 Author Share Posted January 4, 2014 Currently I'm reading "know no fear" by Dan Abnett. It's part of the Horus Heresy series. I just love the Warhammer 40k novels. That universe is just incredible large and complex. I especially love the books written by Dan Abnett. Yes - some of these are amazingly well written - the horus heresy series is so cool :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

2old4gamez Posted January 7, 2014 Share Posted January 7, 2014 Working through the Charles Stross 'Laundry' Novels, starting with The Atrocity Archives. How to describe this series of books? I think the blurb from the Amazon webpage sums them up nicely: 'Bob Howard is a low-level techie working for a super-secret government agency. While his colleagues are out saving the world, Bob's under a desk restoring lost data. None of them receive any thanks for the jobs they do, but at least a techie doesn't risk getting shot or eaten in the line of duty. Bob's world is dull but safe, and that's the way it should have stayed; but then he went and got Noticed. Now, Bob Howard is up to his neck in spycraft, alternative universes, dimension-hopping nazis, Middle Eastern terrorists, damsels in distress, ancient Lovecraftian horror and the end of the world. Only one thing is certain: it will take more than control-alt-delete to sort this mess out. . .' Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bennyworld Posted February 12, 2014 Author Share Posted February 12, 2014 Any more people read any good books recently - I just finished 'every day' by David Levithan , a really great book with an original premise - the main character wakes up in a new body every day. Really worth reading. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SabreUr Posted February 12, 2014 Share Posted February 12, 2014 Several Rushed by Brian Harmon - main hero wakes up one day and feels strong urge of going somewhere. He ends up in... end of spoiler. It's free on Amazon Kindle, so you can check it. Pretty fun horror (in very broad meaning of the genre), likeable character. Considering that it is for free, I had good fun with it. It has sequel, pretty good. Also, Temple of The Blind series by the same author. Not bad, but not mind-blowing book - 3/5. First part, "The Box" is free on Amazon, and later parts cost about 2-3$ I'd say that it's worth checking, if you like fantasy/horror (though Rushed is IMO much better). SEAL Team 13 by Evan Currie and Pulse by Jeremy Robinson. In short, both tell about spec-ops team created to deal with supernatural. SEAL Team 13 is IMO better, because author goes full-on crazy(wizards, vampires, stuff), in Pulse author tries to explain and rationalize some unnatural occurences, but it still entertaining read. Also I'm gathering my strenght to storm two last books in "Malazan Book of The Fallen" saga. I love that series, but I stopped reading 9th book (because friend warned me that it contained massive cliff-hanger I waited for last part to be released in my country) and I can't pick it up now :D.

Doom_Bunny Posted February 12, 2014 Share Posted February 12, 2014 (edited) Philip reeve's mortal engines series. it was a thrilling adventure of revenge, love (that actualy goes some where) and post apocalypse.My swordhand is singing by Marcus Sedgwick. Honestly I need to read this one again I've forgot most of it but it was a really good mystery book.Stormdancer by Jay Kristoff. Mythical creatures, badass female protaganist, civil unrest and chain saw katanas? Sounds like a manga? Well it isn't, with 438 pages of actual story and an 11 page glossary this is none other than Japanese steam punk. Thats right they even put in a glossary for those unfamiliar with the Japanese language. I'm not one for steam punk on most occasions but this was awesome, a far cry from the European steam punk. Rowan of Rin by Emily Rodda. I read this one ages ago but if you're looking to find a replacement or to continue on from an adventure such as the Deltora quests. Then grab your wallet and buy the series or just the one big book contaning all 5 books. There are many publishers that sell Sun Tzu the art of war, all them have a different way of telling about Sun Tzu and his art of war. So Does anyone have an experience with Sun Tzu the art of war and remembers the publisher or author?

GarrisonStewart Posted February 14, 2014 Share Posted February 14, 2014 I've been reading "Revenge of the Dwarves" by Markus Heitz. It's the third part of "The Dwarves" series, which is really good in my opinion. Most of this book can pretty much be summed up in the words of Louis CK: "Maybe something nice will happen." "WHY THE **** WOULD ANYTHING NICE EVER HAPPEN?" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
