The Dragons of Eden by Carl Sagan. It's his Pulitzer Prize winner about the evolution of human intelligence. Very awesome, just like all things Sagan.
Bring back Carl! |

I finally picked up George R.R. Martin's A Feast for Crows. I couldn't stand waiting anymore.
Great trades with Onacara, Gypsy, SirGalahad, elltrain, generalgina, Concord, Just_a_Bill, LongHeroscaper, janus19390, and the very generous obfuscatedhippo. |

Fantasy fans who haven't read GRRM's A Song of Ice and Fire series will kick themselves for waiting when they finally read it. Most fantasy stuff like Robert Jordan is for young adults. GRRM's stuff is definitely for mature readers. A Feast for Crows only has a couple of my favorite characters which made it a little slower in the reading, but that just means that his next book is going to be all the awesome characters and storylines (doing my best to remain optimistic). GRRM .... |

::Steps down from soapbox:: To clarify, my more important point is NOT about Star Wars but about brilliant artists screwing up their own creations, a point which I'm sure has been beaten to death in some other thread and all over the web.

I just finished the Electric Kool-Aid Acid Test and am reading Pride of Baghdad real quick before jumping into The Darkness That Comes Before.
"Comics are a wellspring of imagination; comics can tell stories cheaply that other mediums cannot express. Today it costs $100 million to do special effects on film in 'Fantastic Four' that Jack Kirby could create 40 years ago with a pencil." -Grant Morrison, at the New Yorker Festival |

Martin in next on my list to read, and from everything I've heard I expect good things.
I recently finished all of the Robert Jordan books and was greatly dissapointed. The only reason I finished them at all is because I was listening to them on audiobook during my commute. My favorite fantasy author has always been Terry Brooks though. I have loved every one of his books, and I have read them all. For non-fantasy, I highly recommend Bill Bryson's "A Short History of Nearly Everything". |
