    Myst: The Book of Ti'ana and Myst: The Book of D'ni, both by Rand Miller and David Wingrove. It makes me want to play Myst and Riven again, but I loaned out Riven years ago and haven't seen it again.

    I've only read Book of Ti'ana, but I really enjoyed that one. Those are great books.

    Anyways, I just finished Sea of Silver Light by Tad Williams, the final volume in the Otherland series that I mentioned earlier. There are a bunch of parts in the series that are very inspiring - a bunch of them occur during this novel. The ending, however, is a little too happy-go-lucky for me.

    The only reprise I get is the presence of a romance - well, more than one, but whatever - that is built gradually through the series by the four - two sets each - main, main characters. There's really about 12 main characters, and he writes from the perspective of about 8 of them, excluding Flossie, Quan Li, Sweet William and Javier.

    I recently read "The Elder Gods" by David Eddings. It was a great book, but I was expecting better.

    Dude. Duuuuuuude. I so have those two games, and have the D'ni book. Nostalgia city. And I got the Uru game, but I need some time sometime to play it. Oh yeah, and right now, I'm reading Carter Beats the Devil and I just finished The Explainer , which was basically a buncha strange questions with answers. Yeah.

    EDIT: Whoa, hey, I read the 40 Days of Purpose book, too! But that was like 3 months ago. Right on.

    World of Warcraft... my friend convinced me... bt what started as a skeptic sense of wary enjoyment has turned into the biggest time-waster of all... well, uh, time. I'm getting better. But that's what all addicts say.

    Thought you had said "first book I ever read" for a while there... Anyway, I'm now reading Three Conversations (Correct title?) by Vladimir Solovjev. Very good stuff.

    Oh yeah, I'm also going to pick up some of Dostojevskij's stuff from the library next monday. I'm hot for dead Russian writers.

    Some book about the History of Great Britain between the years of 1500-1700. Scintilating stuff, I must admit. Lots of murder, executions and wars and stuff. Bang on the money!
