I'd have read more books if I weren't playing CoH

So in honor of hallowe'en, I did fun reading for a week - which works out to 5 books [and a little more]. I reread 'Feed' & 'Deadline' by Mira Grant [seanan_mcguire], read 'Devil in the White City' by Erik Larson & read 'Digital Knight' by Ryk Spoor [seawasp].

Plus my brain entertained me with an anime-styled dream of 'None but Man' by Gordon Dickson. So I went back and reread it. All in all it was a good adaptation. No details wrong. I -wish- someone would do a -real- movie or anime of that book [which is my favorite Dickson book].

As an aside, it is nice to -finally- reaquire a copy of 'Digital Knight'. When I first got it, it went on the 'stack to be read'. I loaned it out to someone before ever reading it. They moved [taking 'DK' & my copy of 'Voyage of the Shadowmoon']. It was easy to replace 'Voyage...', but took a while to find 'Digital Knight' - which turned out to be a -wonderfully- fun read.

Thank you! :)

DK isn't TERRIBLY hard to find, if you're willing to order used from Amazon and subsidiaries. I periodically do that to have one or two on hand to give to people.

I try to order from Amazon as little as is possible. So I could see it there [wish listed], but I wanted to buy from a local bookshop. This did eventually happen ... and it went into the 'to be read stack' again, until Saturday night. ^_^
