I just got in my entire Charlie Parker series by John Connolly (won really cheap on Ebay) and I'm currently reading Dark Hollow!
Just an FYI - now I have dupes of Every Dead Thing and The Reapers if anyone wants them.

I'm currently reading Frayed, by Tony Harrington, Bethany and the Zombie Jesus, by Jake Bible, a sample of Midnight's Children, by Salman Rushdie (just to class up the place), and I just finished Goddamn Redneck Surfer Zombies, by Michael Jasper.

Gasp! You think the place needs "classing up", Gerald?
Why, we've got award-winners, world-class sinners, old souls and beginners, truth-tellers and yarn-spinners, blood-givers and soap-opera livers, friends and foes and them still counting up their toes.

I'm about half way thru the last book in the Forgotten Realms Watercourse Trilogy. Its actully been a great read and some great characters have emerged, some annoying ones as well, but its easy enough to overlook them.
Not sure what I'm going to start next. I have a few sci-fi books I need to read, including Book 1 of the Bengal Station Series: Necropath by Eric Brown. I picked it up on a whim because it sounded cool. Kind of like Chasm City by Alastair Reynolds. It was a little long winded at first, but then I couldn't put it down, my favorite Reynolds novel by far (even though its not a favorite of many die-hard space opera fans).

Just got back from the Christopher Paolini signing of Inheritance. He is very funny. I keep thinking of him as a kid but he's almost 30. Had a bit of a book "malfunction" though. They write your name on post-it-notes so the author can sign your name. The post-it-note ripped my signature page. They didn't have any more books down at the stage so the Random house lady gave me her card and told me to email her to get another book. It won't be signed but I don't get books signed for monetary reasons anyway. They sure are making post-it-notes stronger than they used to. I remember when they would always fall off of everything because they were so cheap.

I'm currently reading Hard-Boiled which is a collection of American crime stories ranging from the 1920s up through the 1990s. So far, its really good.

Just started reading Scott G. Mariani's "UPRISING", it's a vampire novel.
A new war is dawning! For millennia, the vampires walked the earth undetected, feasting on humans in keeping with ancient tradition. In the Information Age, vampires realised they must be more careful to avoid detection. In the late 20th century they created the global Vampire Federation to police vampire activity, with special agents like Alex Bishop authorised to hunt down her own kind who break the laws. The old traditions are history. But not all vampires bow down to Federation rule. When rebel vampire Gabriel Stone declares war against them, Alex and her team are plunged into danger. Police inspector Joel Solomon, haunted by a secret terror of vampires, discovers a series of corpses left behind by Stone's bloodthirsty gang. As he and Alex are drawn together in an unlikely alliance between human and vampire, the race begins to destroy the evil Stone before his uprising tears their world apart.
This is so cool!

I was cruising the Internet looking for some stuff for my new e-reader (a Nextbook Series 7), and found the entire Allan Quartermaine series by H. Rider Haggard available in EPUB format...for free. Needless to say, I'm falling in love with the bloodthirsty Ayesha all over again.
