    The complete works of William Shakespeare... sure, its not a book, per say, but its sure thick enough. I'm at Othello right now. Iago makes the play. Go Shakespearian English class!

    American Gods by Neil Gaiman.

    Am considering writing a rant about Fool's Fate and how only maybe the last hundred or so pages felt like they belonged in a Fitz book, but meh. I was disappointed.

    I actually found it was the ending itself which I found a tad disapointing. Too cozy for Hobb, but I reckon she can be cozy once atleast.

    Still wading through Deadhouse Gates by Stephen Erikson. 3/4 of the waythrough and I think I finally have a handle on who all the characters are (although I can't decipher the map and I can't work out what Ascendancy means or what a warren is).

    I'm re-reading the ol Dark Elf Trilogy until I pick up The Two Swords. I'm going to check out the 'A Song of Ice and Fire' series next.

    The two swords by Salvatore. I'm hoping for a good death of his main char after all these books but it probably won't happen. Still it should be a good 'popcorn' read.
