I've heard that book was awesome. I got that and some others by R.R. but don't have the time to read them now.

Yeah I read that a few months back and thought it was great. Once this semester of school is over (3 weeks left) I'll read #3. Stupid school getting in the way of my reading.

For anyone interested in military history, I really reccomend Theodore Ayrault Dodge. His book on Alexander was incredible, and this one is just as good.

I read that, and most of Rankins others a while ago. Waiting for Godalming is by far the best.

I'm reading:

Fuck I hate our modern world. I really, really do.

dammit, Crime and Punishment is hard to read. i'm on page 385/434, and more and more it feels like a chore to read.

what do you guys think of this book?

edit - hmmmmmmm... it seems the translation varies with every edition. then, some advice - stay away from the Penguin Popular Classics edition.

Kathaarian · **Posted:** Sat Apr 29, 2006 9:41 pm

I dunno why people badmouth Crichton. His books are always exciting page-turners, this one is also awesome.

Ya, it is a great book. But it can be a bit difficult to get through.
