OT: Books, Books, Books.
ran into a 'short takes' thing for DW. i like their one for 'The Armaggedon Inheritance'.
http://electronictiger.com/shorts/dw2.htm
a bit of a typo from the amazon.com editer review: 'Restoring the empire that had been destroyed >forty-five< years earlier, Emperor Colin finds problems in the genocidal Achuutani and in his children Sean and Harriet, who have been marooned on a hostile planet. '

Re: OT: Books, Books, Books.
I red "In Death Ground" so many times it fell apart, I glue it back and it is breaking up now anyway... Every single page gives me an urge to play SEIV again and again

Re: OT: Books, Books, Books.
hm. my take on "A Book That Makes Me Wanna Play SE" was Allan Dean Foster's Founding of the Commonwealth trilogy. I reccommend it to anyone.
Gotta reread it sometime...

Re: OT: Books, Books, Books.
Point taken Bug, my bug. Although I find the stuff that Weber wrote for the Starfire mini games before they boxed the lot can do it for me. Remember those? They still got the ships names Duke of Hazard and Duke of Wayne... Oh the good old days!

Re: OT: Books, Books, Books.
I recently bought the first book in the Honor Harrington series, but haven't had the chance to read it yet. I'm reading Tad Williams Otherland books, and it's taking me forever. Then I have the supposedly Last 2 Star Wars books involving the Yuzan Vong, then I got Stephen King's latest book for Christmas, then after that I have several books I want to read. I'll try to read that book then.
