Has the TV show started?

I've finished The Prodigal Mage and I'm halfway through rereading The Witches of Eileanan. I was disappointed with the Prodigal Mage, but I think it would have been better if I'd (known about and) read the The Innocent Mage duology first to understand the characters and world history better.

There has been 5 episodes already aired on HBO in America

Having just finished reading the first three books in Gail Carriger's Parasol Protector series from my TBR pile, I am starting a little late but working on two SciFi/Fantasy books for this Moths challenge:
1.) N.K. Jemisin � Perdido Street Station
2.) China Miéville � The Hundred Thousand Kingdoms
cheers :)

I've had to change books for this challenge, moving from The Dreaming Void to Deathworld 1. The Dreaming Void has a couple of fatal flaws, for me. 1. A ponderously slow plot. 2. Characters that fail to engage. Over 100 pages in (of more than 700... ) and I still haven't found an intriguing story or a character who inspires my like, dislike or more than passing curiosity. So switching to Harry Harrison, who never fails to entertain.

Great books Visible! Glad you could join in...I'm sure you'll do fine with them :)

Dale, good to see you changed books...nothing worse than forcing yourself to read a book that you're not enjoying!!

Ended up reading Battle Royale for this challenge. Quite good, 4 stars. Similar to The Hunger Games, written way before Hunger Games too.

Good on you Maggie! :)

Finished The Death of Grass was very, very good and scarily believable

I dont think I am going to finish 'The Dark & Hollow Places' in the next week. Im only on page 83/374 :O

Well done Sally...:)

Bad luck Jessica, but keep going...you never know!! :)

I read and . Both were novellas, but I preferred Demon's Fall about the unlikely love between a demon and an angel.

Finished The Handmaid's Tale. Great book, gave it five stars. My friends daughter did this book for year 12. I wish I had this for year 12 ... there would have been some interesting discussions following.

Well done Shona and Dee-Ann!

Switching books worked well for me. I've now completed (and enjoyed) . My review is here :

Thanks, Brenda - hope it encourages anyone who hasn't read HH to take a look.

I'm sure it will Dale:)

Completed my Sci-Fi challenge

1. A Game of Thrones - ★★★★
2. Neuromancer - ★★�
3. The Moon Is a Harsh Mistress - ★★★★�



I highly recommend The Moon Is a Harsh Mistress it was a brilliant Sci-Fi novel covering freedom and politics; it's futuristic social commentary of humanity

I am a Robert A. Heinlein from way back - Have read most of his books and slowly working my way through some re-reads

Congrats Knowledge!

It was my first glimpse of Robert A. Heinlein and I really enjoyed it. I'm a big fan of book that leave you with something to ponder, so this book worked well for me. Are you a Philip K Dick fan too, Sally?

He seems familier - but clicked on the link and didn't recognise the titles. there are a few of his books at my local library

I think he is worth reading. He has a very philosopical way of writing.

Won't get the chance to finish my Sci-fi novel for the challenge but I will continue reading afterwards because it is a really good book (Ender's Game).

I finished The Dark and Hollow Places by Carrie Ryan late last night, and thought it was exceptional. Its the final book in the Trilogy, and the best one too. It is hands down the best book I have read this year. Five stars...i'll link my review when i get on the computer later.

I really enjoyed that book too, but haven't read any more of the series yet.

Here is my review for "THE DARK & HOLLOW PLACES". No matter how hard I tried, I could not do it justice: http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/...

@Mickey..that's ok, as long as you're enjoying it:)

@Jessica..well done!!
