I'm currently reading Pattern on the Stone by Hillis. I figured it would be good to brush up on some computer science basics, but 3/4 of the way through I've found I haven't forgotten anything the book has covered so far. Hooray for my education, I guess.

I recently finished The Knight and The Wizard, both by Wolfe (two part series). The first book, Knight, was excellent reading. The second book wasn't bad, but it just wasn't up to snuff in comparison.

Next up for me is probably Buddhism for Beginners by Chodron. I have been neglecting any kind of spiritual reading for a long time, so I'll start somewhere. :)

So I have started on another series....I seem to be stuck in reading Historical or time period pieces....mostly around the 100 years war and such

Right now I am reading the Grail series by Bernard Cornwell...the archer series.

I just finished the 1st book and going to start up the 2nd....I read just the 2nd book about 3 years ago and it was really good...the first was really good as well...

I would recomend this to anyone nto period pieces...
