Finished the Amber Chronicles a few weeks ago. Good series, but it ended on a very open note, and I wish Zelazny could have continued it.
From there I moved on to Band of Brothers. I saw the miniseries a while back and it was good. The book is also good, but I think it hops around a bit too much. I prefer a more solid narrative. (Not that I think it would have been possible.)
Considered moving on to Stalingrad, but I decided to reread Atlas Shrugged again. I'm on page 175 now.
Got my first indication that the SOTN in Castlevania Chronicles isn't quite the same I played on PSX when I grabbed what I thought was the sword familiar, and got a Faerie instead. This, in addition to the Fairy familiar. Looks exactly the same, too, except it wears green instead of blue. According to a walkthrough of the PSX version, the Japanese PSX version had a Fairy and a "Sprite", which is the same as the Fairy, but if you sit down for a few minutes, it'll start to sing to you.
