Don'tcha Love When the Mailman Rings the Doorbell?!
Hmmm, just imagine how surprised I was when this package arrived today... (minus the teddy bears)
Then imagine how surprised I was to see it appear on my charge account.. heh.
(ok,ok.. so it wasn't a surprise!)
So... they are in the pile to be read......
At the moment, I just finished reading The Rover by Mel Odom.
Hardcover: 416 pages
I plan to begin book 2 The Destruction of Books. today.
Hardcover: 384 pages
In book one, little Wick, who is a halfling (sorta like a hobbit but no fuzzy feet) unexpectedly goes from being a Third Level Librarian in the Vault of All Known Knowledge, to being shanghaied by pirates, gets captured and sold as a slave, and is purchased by a group of thieves! Hello? Can we say he is no longer living a "dull life"?!
Along the way Little Wick manages to meet many characters that he thought no longer existed except in the books he read.
The book is very enjoyable and I'm ready to see what's next for the little Librarian!

That was a great package!!! I found a little blue poppet and some really cool sci-fi/fantasy 'zines that I had ordered on my doorstep yesterday. It was quite a thrill!
yeah yeah Chris lol I knew you'd spot that! haha
Hi Steph: I don't do "reviews" really..but I do at least say if I like it or not. lol.. I'm not a "skilled" person who should say what someone else may or may not enjoy.
Carl: Ohhhhhhhhhh MORE POPPETS! You Rat! LOL..
I love it that one of the teddy is just kinda stroking the cover of "An Unexpected Apprentice" - so sweet!
Oh I love this entry from yesterday!! As I love to read...I also love to 'hear' what others think of a book just read!
Enjoy the ones you rec'd too!!
Hi Orpheus.. I couldn't get the head to hang on the other one so it looked like it was reading the title.. but I tried lol
Hootin'anni: if you love to read you should check out Stainless Steel Droppings at : http://www.stainlesssteeldroppings.com/
besides his own blog he has links to many to love to read and write "reviews".. lots and lots of them!!!
It is great to receive parcels, even if we have to pay for them ourselves! :)
I'm waiting on two CD's to be delivered, from Amazon..."Bruce Springsteen, Live In Dublin" and Lucinda Williams' last release, the name presently has slipped my mind.
