Rereading the Book of the New Sun by Gene Wolfe. In the middle of Sword of the Lictor currently. Reminding me why I fell in love with this series the first time I read it in the early 80s.

I'm reading World War Z; it's not my favorite, but it's a quick read. I wish I'd known what the narrative structure was, because I definitely would have passed on it.

I'm rereading WWZ for the third time, which is unusual for me. Have been very resistant to rereading but find myself doing it more often lately. It's the style I love. Hated the movie though. Did nothing to capture what made the book special for me.

That book just didn't work for me; there were parts I like, then they ended. The end.

I'm just about to start Solip:System (or something like that) by W Jon Williams. I just read Hardwired, and loved it. I'm glad I got turned onto this guy (from Danlo's top 60 thread).

I'm reading a crazy Doctor Who novel - The Eight Doctors.
