I bought the La Nague books 'cause someone said they were superlative or something ending in "est" and they may have been, but not something that interested me -- although science fiction is something I like very much. I read The Keep and that just confused me. But I do like Repairman Jack, in spite of it being in the horror genre.
I like what I call "lone hero" novels. Jack is a lone hero. That's why I like him.
Kenji Wrote:In "Sims", lone hero is there. His name is Zero.I'll buy it. I'll read it. I've bought and read about 15 FPW novels so far, and the ones I like are the Repairman Jack novels. You guys talk me into buying OTRJ (other than Repairment Jack) novels and I read them, then I keep my mouth shut on the forum so I don't offend anyone because I didn't like them. Just let me like Repairman Jack, which should be good enough.

Auskar Wrote:Now I get it.
I never played the computer Sims game because it sounded so very uninteresting. So whenever you guys had "Sims" in the header of a thread or talked about it, I thought you were talking about the computer Sims and never even looked. I didn't know there was a book.
Biggles Wrote:My daughter plays Sims. Looks interesting, but not my cup of tea. I prefer to play first person shooters where I can blow enemies' brains out at long range with sniper rifles. But then, I am different, shall we say. :eek:I actually like 3rd person adventure/shooters best, but once you get past Splinter Cell and Metal Gear, you start running out of interesting games. For FPS, I've just begun to give in. I played Resistance: Fall of Man recently, and I'm working on F.E.A.R., though I'm not finding it all that interesting.

I must clarify: that was BAD moaning.
Thank you.
