    Last read = TERMINAL WORLD - Alistair Reynolds

    Favourite Book = The Gap series - Stephen R. Donaldson [1 story told over in a 5 book series]

    Favourite Auther - Currently Alastair Reynolds, not coz he's a Welsh boy but coz all his work is stupendousely good.

    Worthy of mention = Justin Cronin - The Passage

    I just finished reading Running With The Firm, quite an interesting insight into the milwall crews on the 80s.

    my fav recent non fiction author has been PGF. excellent short story writer re the trials and tribulations of travelling Swans fans. Very well worth a read and if you can get a copy of his latest I thoroughly recommend. I just wonder what this genious will come up with next.

    I finished reading World War Z by Max Brooks recently, that was a good read. I've got a list of books I have on my shelf to read coming up (including 1984 and Gulag Archipelago) but at the moment I'm reading a book based on a video game...don't judge me!!

    Cormac Mcarthy is BRILLIANT: Loved "No country for old men" and "the Road" scared the S*** out of me too...
