. . . even more books

It’s been a long day and I’m going to be sliding relentlessly and ingloriously under the table here shortly:

Nevil Shute. I like his stuff enough to have chased down every one of his books. One of my favorites is "Trustee from the Toolroom" -- about a so-called ordinary man who has the most extraordinary adventures saving his niece's inheritance

Comments

Gahh! I don't generally have the time to keep up with reams of comments, but especially since you put them up for us... I keep finding authors that I love and need to read/re-read more of, or ones that I remember seeing and then forgot about, or ones I'd never heard of and suddenly go OMG Need to read!

I seriously need to start keeping a list somewhere.

I've recently found an Aussie author named Jennifer Fallon who writes some neat stuff, very low fantasy, and I've been devouring my way through everything my library has.

Also stumbled across a very silly series that I read years ago and haven't seen again since... I don't recall the author, but the books start with Pyromancer.

Re. the rant about blogging, Mr. Gaiman posted that today too, with some interesting comments. Mostly boiled down to that some authors work better with a community and some tend to be more solitary. I, for one, am very glad you've taken to blogging. You're a fabulous author, and talk about all these random things that interest you with your inimitable style. Thank you!
