Words of wisdom from a combustable amphibian.

Dresden

Posted Monday, September 29th, 2008 at 5:59 am

Over the weekend I finished the 2nd book in the Dresden Files series. These types of books can be predictable, but Jim Butcher throws in enough curves to keep me turning pages. Yes, there were parts of Fool Moon that you see coming from a mile away, but it doesn’t make the journey much less entertaining.

Now that I’ve recharged the creative batteries by pouring words into my brain, it’s time to start pouring them out again on the keyboard. I’ll probably take another break from reading this week while I keep hammering away on ETU.

On that note, I finished the LEGACY OF THE FORCE series. This is by far the best Star Wars stuff since Timothy Zahn and Stackpole. It went about three books too long, but I actually skipped a couple and had no problems with it.

Jacen Solo haters and Mandalorian fans should read it. There’s nothing like a whole planet of pissed off Mandalorians.

I just love the whole police station portion of FOOL MOON. I’ve read it twice, and I could read it again. The tension was pretty thick, I thought. Butcher can flat out write. That series gets better with every book.

I just heard on the radio that the new Bob Lee Swagger book just hit the stores today. Off to B&N, I suppose….
