Does that make me a bad person?<br /><br />As for Gemmell, I'd love to have more time to read. I get about 80minutes a day on the commute and some time, in the evenings sometimes... but there is so much other stuff to do, and watching the midriff features highly :-) If I read as much as I wanted to I'd look like Jabba the Hut in no time at all.Grim's Realityhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15141927678427787365noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29616976.post-55496304329636022502010-01-18T12:11:46.259+00:002010-01-18T12:11:46.259+00:00Ah David Gemmell.

Cert...I think his earlier stuff is better, Graeme.<br /><br />Certainly Owen - I had a copy of Neuromancer once and, as is usual, I loaned it to someone with less concern about other people's books than I have.Neal Asherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13933911904170752700noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29616976.post-27252244352068793212010-01-18T09:41:46.228+00:002010-01-18T09:41:46.228+00:00No William Gibson?No William Gibson?Owen Robertshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16735140932443992868noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29616976.post-41335541005898187562010-01-18T09:02:35.968+00:002010-01-18T09:02:35.968+00:00Gemmell, I read the Troy series Lord of the Silver...Gemmell, I read the Troy series Lord of the Silver Bow etc. They were fantastic, I intend to go through his back catalogue.Grim's Realityhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15141927678427787365noreply@blogger.com
