An Update

My 'proper' job is being a right pest at the moment and seems to expect me to actually work for the money that I'm being paid. To be honest I was shocked to hear this but then I looked at my contract and it appears that I can't wriggle out of this one... Next time I'll be sure to read what I'm signing or at the very least sign it with someone elses name!
I'm still reading lots though and will be looking to chip away at the 'Reading Pile', over the next few weeks, by reviewing these books amongst others...

'The Toyminator' - Robert Rankin (Reading this one at the moment, very funny book)
'The Name of the Wind' - Patrick Rothfuss (I will read this before the end of the year, I will!)
'The Long Price' - Daniel Abraham (I don't think I've heard a bad thing about this book and am looking forward to picking it up very soon)
'In the Eye of Heaven' - David Keck (La Gringa sent this to me with a glowing recommendation. she knows her stuff so I'll be checking this one out too)
'The Ivory and the Horn' - Charles de Lint (Another author that I've heard loads about but never picked up, the blurb on the back looks promising)

This is only a very small part of a large book pile that has escaped the study and has set up outposts in the living room and kitchen (!) so don't worry if I haven't mentioned a book that you've sent me. They all get read at some point... :o)
