Reading Simon Green's "Nightside" series.

The copy and paste functions on this guy's computer are obviously good friends of his.

Just Finished a Couple of books set in the Shadowrun universe.
One and enjoyable Romp that left me thinking these Writers are still on LSD and Shadowboxer that kinda too a nose dive in the center. Adn just became really Bogged Down with too many characthers Milling about. But it did have Pirates so that was kind of fun.

And have started on Mr Kings Book Cell.
SO far been enjoyable lots of Over the top Volience.

   I'm currently splitting my time between Watchman by Ian Rankin (Good, one shot espionage novel), Blink by Malcolm Gladwell and I'm about to do the new Pratchett.

I just read the Bill Hicks biography, American Scream by Cynthis True. It was a heart breaker.
