The Literature Topic...
« on: 22 June 2021, 10:16:13 »
This topic is for all sorts of literature...

I began reading Jonathan Wylie's "Island and Empire: Book Two: Echoes of Flame" yesterday...

Sadly, we do not have books one ("Dark Fire") or three ("The Last Augury")...

Current book I'm reading is Faust, the one before that was Paradise Lost/Paradise Regained. So far, Faust has proven to be a smoother ride due to the prose being less old Englishy.

I guess I don't really read very much anymore, unfortunately. I mostly just read academic papers these days. Might try to work on changing that once I submit my thesis.


Used to be really into Warriors, it was like my favourite thing ever for several years. I reckon it went downhill very very catastrophically after the 12th book, when the New Prophecy series ended, but briefly picked up again in the Dawn Of The Clans series, which I generally enjoyed a lot, before sinking drmatically back into the grim abyss of bad writing.

Finished the first part of Faust and the first act of Part 2. Just need to read the next 4 parts then the bonus material before moving onto Dante's The Divine Comedy.

Does manga count as literature of a sort?

Anyway, this just in.

I've been making some progress on Skulduggery Pleasant: Until the End and I'm glad I did because it's pretty good and it has some quotes that I'll have to write up sometime.
