But it was only a teeny tiny gripe and i loved the rest of the book, especially the way it was written from each persons angle/diary
Hood, by Stephen R. Lawhead, book 1 of the King Raven Trilogy
If anyone is interested in what Robin Hood could have been, in a historically accurate setting, I highly recommend these books. It strays from the original legend, but I find it to be a good thing during some parts. It's a lot more realistic
Finished Drawing re-read and on to The WasteLands
"So many vows. They make you swear and swear. Defend the King, obey the King, obey your father, protect the innocent, defend the weak. But what if your father despises the King? What if the King massacres the innocent? It's too much. No matter what you do, you're forsaking one vow or another."
There's one hole in every revolution, large or small. And it's one word long.. people. No matter how big the idea they all stand under, people are small and weak and cheap and frightened. It's people that kill every revolution.
hey Chris, I remember you recommended those books to me but I couldn't find them anywhere here. So it's still on the list.
"So many vows. They make you swear and swear. Defend the King, obey the King, obey your father, protect the innocent, defend the weak. But what if your father despises the King? What if the King massacres the innocent? It's too much. No matter what you do, you're forsaking one vow or another."
Finally found one. It's the one I most wanted, too.
Also got the newest Ender book.

Doctor Who: The Coming of the Terraphiles - Michael Moorcock
Never be cruel and never be cowardly. And if you ever are, always make amends.
You are a walking talking Doctor Who encyclopedia to me. - Melike
just finished Beyond Exile: Day by Day Armageddon
Just finished this fantastic work about capital punishment in France:
And am now reading my first Haruki Murakami novel.
I've been wanting to read some of his fiction for a long time, and I fell in love with this novel after less than four pages!
This book blows my mind. That's what I need after a long day at work... a woman who wants to live with her dead husband's brain... a man who likes betting and collects fingers... and lots of other grotesque stories.
Roland would have understood.
I'm on to Wizard & Glass in my current re-read
Letti, I may be mistaken, but was he the one who wrote Willy Wonka?

OK, i don't know how popular Roald Dahl is everywhere else, but if you had asked that question in the UK, do you know what reaction you'd be most likely to get?
Spoiler:
Fortunatly, you're american, so i can only assume that the total legend of every Brit's childhood is not quite as well known in the US. I can assume, anyway.

DD, I'm quite positive you'd get the same reaction if one were to claim that Dr. Who is superior to LOST.
But no, I'm not familiar with the childhoods of British children.
