OT: Time for another thread on books? (Retorical)

[narf poit chez BOOM]

I'm currently reading what I presume is the latest Flinx and Pip book, Flinx's Folly. I also have a bag and a half of mostly hardbacks from the library; just finished rereading The Raven Ring by Patricia C. Wrede, also finished R.A. Salvatore's latest Drizzt book (Which has a suprising twist at the end that will be after some spoiler space) and one by Martha Wells called Wizard Hunters, moving from the career of her illustrious crime lord/sometimes hero and his sometimes drug-addicted sorceror friend to his daughter...(Uh, I'll skip the rest of the intro here except to say that if you like dark humor, intelligent heroes and light somewhere off in the tunnel, even if the tunnel is stinky and filled with sewer water crawling with slimey and squishy things, you'll like this series) as an invasion pumels the nation of Ill-Rien.

I also finished a book of short stories called Swords and Sorcerors (Or maybe Sorceries) (Not to be confused with the simalairly-named anthology editied by Marion Zimmer Bradley (At least, I think it's she)), which includes, among other things, an excerpt from the book 'The Princess Bride'. I didn't even know there was a book.

Twelve spoilers, then the snerk, then eight more spoilers.

Drizzt does not, in fact, kill the big bad.
