Rogue Squadron series. Wedge Antilles is the most underrated Star Wars character.

Doctor Whom.
I love it - grammar and time travel, what more could I ask for?

Praha · 05-20-2008, 12:15 PM

Doctor Who? What are you? 12?!!

KC - Moab? or the sequel?

Maybe scientology wasn't the right word. The book is 'Dianetics' and the theory sounds interesting from a philisophical perspective.

okay, maybe it WAS the right word.. :\ ah what the hell. there are about 10 books in front of it on my 'to read' list.

Praha - heh, tie-ins aren't always that bad. they're good filler and technically canon, so if you're in to a series they can be more interesting than half the episodes they air....

Moab. There's a sequal

Doctor Whom. It's a parody. By the same author of Eats, Shoots and Leaves. Not actually in any way connected to the series.

KC - well I only assumed, considering Moab finished when he was, what, 20? I figured he'd have released another by now - at least to his 40s.

Found this 30% off voucher yesterday, so I went and bought a couple of books. Wasn't going to, but I realized this morning to my horror that I don't have a copy of Pepys's diary in my library. So I've remedied that. I also bought The Tyrannicide Brief by Geoffrey Robertson. Should be good.

I'm reading Ruinair now, it was only 0.01c (12.99 if you include taxes and charges) and quite funny

I want a war sci-fi book with fleet battles and decent amounts of good plot and action. Anyone got any suggestions?
