I finished The Neverending Story by Michael Ende yesterday. What a good story! Much better than the film which, if I recall correctly only covers the first half of the book.
I’m on to Reave the Just and Other Tales by Stephen Donaldson now. I’ve already finished the title story which I thoroughly enjoyed.

I’ve just finished reading House Corrino by Brian Herbet and Kevin J Anderson. An excellent story. Some really good background information to the later stories. It makes me want to go an read the rest of the Dune series again. But I must resist and read some books I haven’t read yet. I’m currently reading The Neverending Story by Michael Ende and still in the pile are:

• Reave The Just by Stephen Donaldson
• Frank Skinner by Frank Skinner
• The Shelters of Stone by Jean M Auel (But I’ll probably have to read the whole Earth’s Children series from the beginning)
• The Unbearable Lightness of Being by Milan Kundera
• Plus a selection of technical books.

I’ve just finished The God Of Small Things by Arundhati Roy. Absolutely fantastic. This is a “must read” book. Thrilling, moving, funny, sad. I would recommend it to anyone. Go and read it. NOW!

I recently read a very, very funny graphic novel call Jay and Silent Bob — Chasing Dogma. Recommended if you are broad minded and like ‘yoof’ humour.
