    Ya, the revised version.

    I'd have started it properly but I started it pretty much straight after finishing Jingo and it was just too hard going after all that Pratchett! Tore a good chunk out of it last night (insomnia is great) and so far, it rox!



    All the best,

    Magician rocks but I got lost 14 books into the trilogy.

    Reading David Brins "Uplift" series, now on bk 2, "Infinity's Shore".

    Kind of a strange style to get the hang of, but quite enthralling (doh, I'm supposed to be doing my C++ proj.)

    well finally finished Do Androids Dream of Electronic Sheep, without startin yet another book...though i was tempted...now to finish Dune

    Does anyone know if the full stories of the Starwars Trilogy are in print, and I don't mean the books of the films. There is sooo much going on that the films don't show, such as:
    When Chubaca is picking up the pieces if C3P0 from the incinerator room in The Empire Strikes Back, you can see in the background lying up against a wall another android. This Android was seen earlier when Vader was briefing the Bounty Hunters. This Android Bounty Hunter also found Solo n co, and had a confrontation with Boba Fett, from which he obviously came out the worse.
    And there are alot more besides this, so I want to get the FULL story smile.gif

    Finished Lord of the Isles earlier during the week and am curently reading David Weber's On Basilisk Station - first of the Honour Harringtion books. LOTI was simply something to waste time with - kept me interested but wasnt great :dunno:

    So far On Baslisk Station has proved very enjoyable though it reminds me alot of David Feintuch's Seafort saga
