Nothing right now. I finished the second volume of Romance of the Three Kingdoms (down with Wei!) a few days ago, but the only new book I have at the moment I need to save for my holiday. That book being the Icewind Dale Trilogy in one big volume (still waiting for the Dark Elf Trilogy to arrive). I might find a book to reread at some point in the near future.

King's Man and Thief - Christie Golden

I must say, this book has made me realise how much of a weak stomach I have for violence and death to women. I have just finished reading a dreadful few chapters of the book where a man, former thief, realises he is in love and asks a woman in marriage. She accepts, but within seconds, the man is sapped and she is kidnapped. The following chapter focuses on the kidnapper slaughtering (with much graphic description) the woman and finally killing her in sacrifice to some dark god.

"Your beauty goes first" said the killer as she sliced through her captive's face.

I was shaking, and I ended up puking from an overdose of stress/dread/disgust and agony.

The author laughed her *** off when I told her about it. XD

I'm a site admin... Forum admin's been offered before, but I don't think Brian's been around here enough to know how bad giving me forum admin would come across.

Not that I'd even have anyone to use it on. I think I'd just ban Rob every time he thought it was his right to inform everyone how much he didn't care in every thread.

Money is a tool of exchange, which can't exist unless there are goods produced and men able to produce them. Money is the material shape of the principle that men who wish to deal with one another must deal by trade and give value for value. Money is not the tool of the moochers, who claim your product by tears, or of the looters, who take it from you by force. Money is made possible only by the men who produce. Is this what you consider evil?
