Well, I'm excited. Lately I've been very much enjoying some fantasy/sci-fi books from publisher The Black Library. At first I thought they'd be tacky, and yes, some of them are, but I was suprised to find that some of them were actually very good books! I've been having a lot of fun reading them. In the last 4 months, I've bought and read over 20 Black Library books, and thats besides the other non-fantasy/sci-fi books I normally read.

So the reason I'm excited is that I just found out that there are going to be a bunch of sequels coming out to some of my favorite series.

1.) A sequel to Ravenor by Dan Abnett called Ravenor Returns. The Ravenor books are based on a character from the AMAZING Eisenhorn Trilogy. I can not wait til this comes out.

2.) A sequel to Witch Hunter. I didn't like the book at first, but by the end, I was having lots of fun reading it. The sequel is called Witch Finder.

3.) A sequel to another series I enjoy, the Soul Drinkers series. There is a sort of...noble sadness throughout the series, a desperation to cling onto honor that I enjoy reading about. The first book was called Soul Drinkers, then The Bleeding Chalice and coming soon is Crimson Tears. It should be a good one.

4.) The four Liber Chaotica books, which are impossibly hard to find (and which I have been really wanting to read) are finally being collected into one volume. Whats cool is that the compilation is going to actually be pretty cheap for the size book its going to be, whereas each of the four individual Liber Chaotica books are very expensive because they're out of print and had a low print run.

So thats cool, four books I know I'm going to enjoy lots should be out within the next month or two.

Oh yeah! And the next Harry Potter book is coming out soon! Woo!

For anyone thats reading this and enjoys reading sci-fi books, I would HIGHLY recommend The Eisenhorn Trilogy by Dan Abnett. It collects all three books of the trilogy, Xenos, Malleus and Hereticus, into one fat ass book with two short stories. Over 750 pages in paperback for only $10. You can order it at Barnes and Noble, B. Daltons and places like that. Seriously, its probably the best sci-fi book I've ever read, I had so much fun reading it. Its only ten bucks, go ahead, give it a whirl heh.

And thats all for now. I should be doing other things but what am I doing? Playing on the internet. GAH!
