Tagged by Larry. He’s quickly becoming my greatest foe in the blogging world.

Nightstand/Table: I just cleared off my bedside table a week ago, but before that it held copies of:

  • The three Mistborn novels by Brandon Sanderson
  • Altered Carbon by Richard Morgan
  • The Shadow of the Wind by Carlos Ruiz Zafon
  • Infoquake by David Louis Edelman
  • Memories of Ice by Steven Erikson

Eclectic enough?

Reading at the Moment: Just finishing up Sping by Robert Charles Wilson, 50 or so pages left. Will then pick up The Last Colony by John Scalzi.

Can’t Put Down: Braid – a beautifully artistic XBLA game. That and Civilization Revolution. I guess I’m in a gaming mood, lately.

Gathering Dust: My summer. Working full time fucking sucks.

Secret Indulgence: Literary? Nothing, really. I’m pretty upfront with what I like. Otherwise? Miley Cyrus. I feel so imasculated by her music, but so fuckin’ groovy at the same time. *shrugs*

Looking Forward To: The re-release of Peter F. Hamilton’s Night’s Dawn Trilogy by Orbit Books. The Wise Man’s Fear by Patrick Rothfuss. Best Served Cold by Joe Abercrombie. A Dance with Dragons by George R.R. Martin. You know, the usual suspects. Oh, and a bunch of stuff I can’t remember right now.

Alright. Done and dusted. I tag Graeme, Chris the Book Swede, Grasping for the Wind and Speculative Horizons.
