Finally finished reading Deadhouse Gates. This was an absolutely brilliant novel. If any of you have any interest in the epic fantasy genre at all, I would strongly urge you to read this book, as long as you don't mind your fantasy to be terribly tragic at times. Steven Erikson is one of the best prose stylists currently working in any genre.

I'm going to finish Cerebus Vol. 7: Flight later today. I'm plowng through this series, surprised by how great it is. I don't much like Dave Sim's politics, but it's a terrific series.

I'm now re-reading China Mieville's Perdido Street Station. Mieville's mastery of language creates a very pleasurable reading experience.

I'm reading The Stupidest Angel by Christopher Moore right now. Not loving it, really, too cutesy for me, but it was lent to me by a friend so I'm giving it a shot.
Later today, I'm going to dig through my big stack of to-read books and find something new to assail. It may be Michael Houellebecq. Could be Steve Erickson. Sam
