TheOneWhoFell Posted May 5, 2011 Report Share Posted May 5, 2011 I have a really old book, I don't how it is or who wrote it. It's called the necronomicon Did you remember the magic words? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
karn987 Posted May 5, 2011 Report Share Posted May 5, 2011 When I was in high school I picked up a book called homeland by R.A. Salvator anf hadn't been reading fantasy ever since . Just found a copy of pride and prejudice and zombies , I heard ok things about it so might give it a read down the road sometime . Yeah I heard interesting things about P&P Zombies to but haven't gotten around to reading it yet. I don't think I had an absolute favorite... I find I appreciate many of the books as I get older in a way I didn't "get" when I was a student... I do love British Lit... Mmm I agree with the "get" part of that, a lot of books I read in school went over my head and now I look back at them and get that "huh... so thats what that was about.. well that's interesting *reads more*". I honestly can't say I have read a lot of British Lit I think... but then again I may not know one if it hit me in the face XD I do find myself leaning towards Scifi a lot, probably because I love technology and I love a good war story. But then again, I guess it comes down if I am reading to be entertained or reading to get fully vested and understand a book. This probably makes me a huge geek... but one of my favorite books is the Mythical Man Month by Fred Brooks. I find the observations fascinating especially since many of the practices he details as being inefficient I have to deal with now at work XD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
karn987 Posted May 5, 2011 Report Share Posted May 5, 2011 Did you remember the magic words? "Klatto Verata Nicto!" Or if your Ash... "Clatto Verata N... Necktie... Neckturn... Nickel... It's an "N" word, it's definitely an "N" word! Clatto... Verata... N-" ..... "Ok... thats it!" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheOneWhoFell Posted May 5, 2011 Report Share Posted May 5, 2011 British Lit is anything written and published in England (Read Harry Potter? lol) I read... everything? Not SO big on nonfiction... I don't like to read long drawn out histories or bibliographies... but I LOVE fiction... and Fantasy... Right now I'm reading 5 books (Not exactally all at once... I cylce through them so I don't get bored... and yes, I remember everything I read...). The Lion the Witch and the Wardrobe (Lewis) Lamb: The Gospel according to Biff, Christ's childhood pal (Moores) Dracula (Stoker) Latest Work, Life, Bibliography (Tolstoy) Irish Tracts and Sermons (Swift) And three of them fall under British Lit Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FoeRender Posted May 5, 2011 Report Share Posted May 5, 2011 Silly querty touch screen I had to go back and edit my last post , made out sound like salvatore writing turned me away from fantasy lol , I rather enjoyed the dark elf series thats what got me into reading fantasy . Just read the zombie hand book , it was a fun read for the train rides into work . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not my favorite fantasy but it was interesting at least, I liked some of the concepts a lot but I really wanted to smack Harry around in the last few books.. I love the LWW! I liked the books a lot more then the movies. I've not gotten hooked into a fantasy series in a while... sick of the same old Dragon this dragon that thing of many of them. Mind you Dragons are cool but so horribly overused, I prefer demons and devils for my mega mythical creatures to be honest. Hmmm what am I reading right now... one of the Starwars Fate of the Jedi Novels (name escapes me) and about 3 technical books on Java Spring XD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just giving an example your dislike of HP sounds like my dislike for Dan Brown... and James Patterson *growls about made up words* I like the early books where they were simple and didn't think much of themselves, now the're every where and it's better then everything else, it too full of itself Also the last few book are too long and nothing EVER happens Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well she is certainly one heck of an interference to run into If you have trouble keeping her alive, consider adding a Guardian and having it keep up with her using Protect and what not on her when it can. That should certainly make Lady J tougher. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
