Just finished Koontz's Velocity. A good read, really liked the pacing.

i'm not into books on tape/cd but i recently listened to Chuck Barris's "Confessions of a Dangerous Mind" on 5 CDs.
(Read by the author)

I'm glad he read it - he did an amazing job.

I was completely engaged. Don't know how much was bullshit or not but it's fascinating.

I've never read the book, but I thought the movie was good. Sam Rockwell is an awesome actor.

I listened to an interview with Chuck Barris on the
Coast To Coast radio show in 2002.

Interesting stuff.

Just finished The Ruins by Scott Smith. He goes into a lot of detail (some might say too much) in places, but overall I thought it was a pretty good read.

Getting ready to start Brimstone by Preston and Child.

just finished Clive Barker's The Damnation Game.

Just as the 1st time many years ago when i 1st read it ... i began to lose interest 2/3 through the book.

the main character was the only thing i enjoyed and he was pretty much abandoned late in the book ...

it wasnt hard to follow - just kind of blah ..

next up : i begin the Necroscope by Lumley.

i dont know why i got sucked back into horror fiction considering how much i despise it .. hopefully Lumley is a decent writer.
