Briar King Posted April 19, 2014 Report Share Posted April 19, 2014 Ok on Malazan Empire Forums we have this thread and it quite a busy one at that. If your a bookaholic here's the place to list your buys. We get a lot of great recos from each other doing this. On a side note I did NOT buy anything today. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bartbug Posted April 20, 2014 Report Share Posted April 20, 2014 I spent an audible credit on Endymion. Loved the first two in the Cantos, and this one is turning out great as well. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+Quitecontrary Posted April 20, 2014 Report Share Posted April 20, 2014 Bought two Tom Sharpe books today - Wilt and The Great Pursuit - and a book called The Dictionary of Sarcasm. Tom Sharpe is always great fun to read when I need a laugh. And I was drawn to the dictionary. Since English is not my first language, I'm sometimes oblivious to sarcastic comments directed to me, so I guess I need a guide. :-P 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Two McMillion Posted May 16, 2014 Report Share Posted May 16, 2014 I bought The Blade Itself yesterday for $2.99 on kindle. If it's still at that price it's an excellent deal. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Delightful Posted May 18, 2014 Report Share Posted May 18, 2014 Harry Sidebottom, Iron and Rust Janny Wurts, Mistwraith - the first three books. And of course these have nothing to do with Mistborn, right? 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Virtual Mayhem Posted May 21, 2014 Report Share Posted May 21, 2014 The Martian by Andy Weir. Hell of a hard SciFi book. One of my favorites in the genre. its fantastically well written and didn't drag on. I devoured it the day I bought it! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Briar King Posted May 27, 2014 Author Report Share Posted May 27, 2014 Skin Game!! Hell yes! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gabriele Posted May 28, 2014 Report Share Posted May 28, 2014 And of course these have nothing to do with Mistborn, right? Lol, no. Iron and Rust is historical fiction about Maximinus Thrax, first of the so-called soldier emperors, and the Mistwraith books are really called something about Light and Shadow, an ongoing series that's supposed to be 12 books or so (with 9 books out); Curse of the Mistwraith is the first of the series. Though it would be fun to imagine how Roman history would have gone with some people being able to do metal magic. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Silus - Shard of Flame Posted August 30, 2014 Report Share Posted August 30, 2014 Only ten days this time, Theorymaker! Oh, gosh, I love books. I'm building up my personal library so I'll still have books by the time I move out of my parents' house. I've bought many more books in the last month than I've read. The Remembering by Steve Cash, great historical fiction with some great supernatural/magic elements to it. Third in the trilogy; the first was my absolute favorite book before I discovered Brandon Sanderson (and remains the book I've reread the most times). The first five books of Animorphs by K. A. Applegate. One of my favorites as a kid and remains one of my favorite series. I'm starting to collect them from the beginning. I had a couple already and my dad is helping me out by picking up random titles he finds at the thrift store (cuz they're usually super cheap). Schlock Mercenary #1: The Tub of Happiness. I've already got 5 and 6 (one for being in the right place at the right time, literally, and one for helping Howard out with one of his book releases a couple of years ago) but this is the first I've ever actually paid for. I loved the bonus story for this one and this issue in particular is great for showing off how far Howard's art has come over the course of his career. With more to come! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
