I started reading 'The Tomb' again three days ago. I am almost intrigued as the first time and I can't put the books down. I already finished 'The Tomb' and I'm about a third of the way threw 'Legacies.'
This time I'm reading them in order.
Maggers Wrote:John, I'm so glad you are enjoying FPW the second time around. If a book is good, I can enjoy it endlessly over the years.
But with FPW, there is a phenomenon at work. I can read and reread his books either in proximity in time or years apart. They are, quite simply, exhilarating.

Sometimes rereading a book can be a good thing. I tend to reread "Catch-22"
every few years or so and have found that as I mature I gain more from that
book and the humor in it does not lose its' freshness. I am a bookaholic and
sometimes I like to turn back to favorite tales when nothing currently seems
palatable to the eyes. Also, like you, I have read "The Tomb" twice.
