I've only read one or two of them, but I've heard the whole series on audio CD. These books are awesome. I actually don't like Smith's other series, but this one is definitely worth diving into.

Just sort of stumbled across these in the library the other day and was impressed by the characterization. Has anybody else read this author? What do you think of her? Her own story is just as interesting as the book she wrote.

Is anyone here waiting for ME 3 to come out?

Death's Acre is a fascinating look at the Body Farm and how it got started. Basically, that's the place where they set bodies out during different conditions to gather data on decomposition. This helps forensic experts figure out how long a body's been out in the elements in different...

I'm not really a nonfiction fan, but this book is a very interesting read about the state of human trafficking in today's world. Highly recommended for anybody interested in learning more about slavery.

The Mistborn Trilogy was a lovely series.... perhaps on the long side, but great all the same. It's fantasy but believable. The Way of Kings was all right too. I haven't read any of his other works besides starting to read Alloy of Law.

Anyone ever heard of these books? I think there are 3 now. I'm reading the 2nd... the Curse of the Spellmans. Totally funny books. Reminiscent of the Stephanie Plum books.

Hey all, would love your opinion on this piece. It's just fanfiction. Some of my friends said since I'm a writer and a crazy star wars loving fan I should indulge in fanfic... so here is the result of peer pressure. “May I please speak with Dee-four?” I inquired sweetly of the protocol droid...

Charming fantasy books. Hill does a nice job bringing Queen Thirrin to life.

Have you read them? Do you like them? Do you like one over the other? (personally, I like the supermystery combos best) When was the last time you read one? (gosh, been a few years)
