Corcaigh Posted October 28, 2009 Share Posted October 28, 2009 I like anything with zombies, for sure. Not familiar with John Ringo, though, I have to admit. We recently bought a copy of Pride & Prejudice and Zombies. I've yet to read it but judging a book by its cover, it certainly looks promising.

LuvtheSkins428 Posted October 28, 2009 Share Posted October 28, 2009 Last book I read was Harry Potter and the Deathly Hollows. I really enjoyed it. I've read the last two chapters over again several times. It's like the fight scenes in Ivanhoe or King Author. Good stuff. Isis by Douglas Clegg. It's a nice little Halloween novella and I would highly recommend it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZoEd Posted October 28, 2009 Share Posted October 28, 2009 The last book in the Dark Tower series. Easily the best book series ever! Anytime I read a book I imagine how it could be made into a movie and who would play each character. Ultimately anytime a book is made into a movie it loses it's identity and I think the Dark Tower series is way to complex to pull off in a film. However, I do envision it being done in animation. The type of film I have in my mind is like the animated film Heavy Metal. I just think it would be a kickass series of animated films. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nonniey Posted October 28, 2009 Share Posted October 28, 2009 yeah, read them all. In fact, I think they may use some of that in the final sunrise lands book. (High king of Montival)I've enjoyed most of his stuff and now i'm excited to get the draka series thanks to you! Warning on the Draka series the early books are not that good actually - 1st two books, Marching through Georgia and ? (- been a long time) are a bit pedestrian but the then the 3rd book (Stone Dogs) is rip roaring and the last post series book Drakon is good as well. (Think you can get the series minus Drakon in a single compelation book now). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
