I’m cutting it fine to announce this next book as I am probably going to finish The Bourne Identity tonight or tomorrow (work permitting.) It’s taken me quite a while to read, but it has been worth it.
My Book Activity page has been a little non committal about what I am planning to read next as well. Up until <in a minute when I change it, so by the time you read this post, it will be changed!> the next book section has read:
Haven’t got one yet. I’m thinking it should be one of my new ones? Then again, I haven’t read a fantasy for a while and I do need to slot them in amongst the others??
I really really want to read some of my “new books”. Those would be the ones that I got for Christmas! But, I’m not going to let myself just yet… Yes, you’ve guessed it, I took the second option and will be picking up a fantasy for my next book. The Pawn of Prophecy is the first of David Edding’s Belgariad series. And again, like The Chronicles of Thomas Covenant, I own a good few of the series. And again, although I own quite a few David Eddings books, I have never read one!!!! (aaaand again, you see why I started this blog) As some of you will know, I read quite a bit of fantasy in my late teens (some one or two years ago approximately.) I also have friends who have read all the David Eddings books but I have always had something else to read. Well David, now it’s your turn. Your rightful place on my bookshelf has been asserted for many years. Your rightful place in my mind (ew) is about to be realised. Bring forth the fantasy realms of the Belgariad and all the adventure that comes with them…
Footnote: I am going to need to find a better way to arrange these new book posts. The title and the bloody great picture give the surprise away some what…
