I now return you to your regularly scheduled inanity and insanity.
My copy of Monster Hunter: Legion is on it's way, and if you like Larry Correia (and let's be honest, who doesn't?) you would like his Spellbound series and the Dead Six novel he did with Mike Kupari. Plus, he's GI Joe's accountant. How cool is that?
ReplyDeleteI read dead six when it came out...has all of the larry coreia's too...I do have ONE gripe though! I never got any patches:) GRRRRRR!

ReplyDeleteMonster Hunter: Legion is good....it's not as good as the one the first one or the third one though....

DeleteWolf...
ReplyDeleteTell Larry...Where are my patches!!

Deletethe Sharpe novels by Bernard Cornwell.
ReplyDeleteI was wondering if they were good...So, are they good or REALLY good? if really good, I will have to order em.
leaper
yeah they are..I discovered them because of the movies..bought up all the ones that had been out to that point, and a couple after. I still have all the ones I've bought. While I haven't read them recently I refuse to get rid of them. Partially because should I give them up and find the hankering to read them again...they'd be a bitch to find and replace...especially the oldest ones.
DeleteMichael Waterhouse sent me one..
ReplyDeleteI said you might proofread it..
He is on another novel now..but promised to ask you...if you would read his books...and give comments.
OK?
sorry if I overstepped.

Just saying he is a good author..with some potential!

You ever read the Giants of Ganymede series?
