I have 'very little' interest in that.

I thought I couldn't get into it, 'cus I don't like LOTR or things where people are walking and talking a lot, like in a forrest or at sea.
But I watched it on the train home today, where there are no distractions, and its quite good. Now's a good time to watch it, 'cus the new one comes out soon.

I plan to reread the rest of the books first
but this means buying them since originally I borrowed all but Feast for Crows (which I got when I was working in a bookshop and skipped around the shop with it when it came in).

Anyway, I have to get over the 'why am I buying a book I've already read' thing

I still need to read teh last three books of the Dark Tower series.
I really loved the first three. The fourth one was a bit 'meh' and I understand the last two are excellent. I really must get round to doing that soon.

The last Stephen King I really enjoyed was Cell. That was a pretty excellent zombie book.

Stephen King is on facebook?

I am very much enjoying this new meme.

The thing is
Stephen King is like Clive Barker, only with out the imagination and less weird sex
( Citizen Cavy Admires your passion for conformity, Fri 16 Mar 2012, 20:00, Reply)

The only one of his I even trioed to read
was Weaveworld.
( b3th Not shit. Not mod., Fri 16 Mar 2012, 20:02, Reply)

Imajika was best
and I'm afraid for once I agree with the dozer, Galilee was a bit like a mash up of his old stuff. Although the other problem with that book was the WHOLE PAGE he devoted to one character laughing at another's name which happens to be my surname

I'm going to gaz you the best student name ever
used to always make me laugh, but I'm not putting it on here
( Citizen Cavy Admires your passion for conformity, Fri 16 Mar 2012, 20:07, Reply)

Ah. I didn't see this post.
I wondered what that gaz was about.

I don't mind telling everyone my student's name. He was a cunt of a child. Called me a bitch and stormed out of my class.
( b3th Not shit. Not mod., Fri 16 Mar 2012, 20:15, Reply)

good name, though, right?
It's a bit too individual to really post in a public forum
( Citizen Cavy Admires your passion for conformity, Fri 16 Mar 2012, 20:17, Reply)

It made me laugh, but I'm simple.

( b3th Not shit. Not mod., Fri 16 Mar 2012, 20:19, Reply)

Imajica was indeed his best longform novel.
Hellbound Heart is his best short fiction.
(dozers, do fuck off ur a nob m8, Fri 16 Mar 2012, 20:08, Reply)

I used to quite like Clive Barker when I was sixteen or so.
Very imaginative stuff. Leagues ahead of Stephen King. But his stuff from around Galilee onward hasn't been very good.
(dozers, do fuck off ur a nob m8, Fri 16 Mar 2012, 20:02, Reply)

My dad had every Steven King book going before he died, I tried a few times to get into his stuff, but couldn't, but my reading age was a lot lower back when I tried.
I do like a bit of Dean Koontz though, even though I haven't read him for 6 years.
( G/PP 💩💩💩💩💩&#128, Fri 16 Mar 2012, 20:07, Reply)

I read a Dean Koontz once.
I found it to be that terrible it was funny. And I was 15 or so.
(dozers, do fuck off ur a nob m8, Fri 16 Mar 2012, 20:09, Reply)

I love Dean Koontz
but he essentially writes the plot every time.

You can guarantee any book will contain a green-eyed woman, a survivor of abuse, a dog, an orphan, or any combination of the above.

Oh, or a psychic.

the man and woman will meet under stange and potentially dangerous circumstances
which seem to have a supernatural cause. They will fall in love. They will beat the bady

Obviously.
I tell you what else I liked - Eon and Eternity. I'd love to see them made into a film or TV series.
( b3th Not shit. Not mod., Fri 16 Mar 2012, 20:13, Reply)

Greg Bear? He did Eon, right?
I don't think I thought much of it
( Citizen Cavy Admires your passion for conformity, Fri 16 Mar 2012, 20:15, Reply)

I found it a bit confusing in places
but the scope of it was amazing. I reckon it would make an awesome tv series.
( b3th Not shit. Not mod., Fri 16 Mar 2012, 20:17, Reply)

Have you read Arthur C Clarke's Rama books?
It reminds me of those. I liked those more (even though Clarke's characters are a bit on the wooden side)
( Citizen Cavy Admires your passion for conformity, Fri 16 Mar 2012, 20:19, Reply)

I think the dog thing is why I liked him so much.
I stopped reading him around the time of the second Odd book.
( G/PP 💩💩💩💩💩&#128, Fri 16 Mar 2012, 20:29, Reply)

I quite liked the Odd books.
I've got the fourth one still to read. Actually, I have a really looooong list of books to read.
( b3th Not shit. Not mod., Fri 16 Mar 2012, 20:34, Reply)

I don't think I'll dig the books, too many complicated names.

( G/PP 💩💩💩💩💩&#128, Fri 16 Mar 2012, 20:06, Reply)

You can tell how wanky a fantasy / scifi book is going to be
by teh number of apostrophes in the characters' names.
( b3th Not shit. Not mod., Fri 16 Mar 2012, 20:07, Reply)

Haha, totally.
I hate the whole "I am Arrigon, Son of Kolach, Keeper of the Realm, Lord of the Council of True Eldars and Keeper of the Dragonsword" introductions.
( G/PP 💩💩💩💩💩&#128, Fri 16 Mar 2012, 20:08, Reply)

Or by the fact that it's described as fantasy

( Naked Ape call me Caitlyn, Fri 16 Mar 2012, 20:09, Reply)

untrue!
Iain M Banks does a bit of crazy naming, but he does it on purpose, wallowing inthe loveliness of sci fi tropes
( Citizen Cavy Admires your passion for conformity, Fri 16 Mar 2012, 20:09, Reply)

Ian Banks is nowhere near as good as he thinks he is.

I'm not being nasty here.
But he is an average author at best. He is great at plotting, granted, but there is a lot more to being a good author than plotting.
(dozers, do fuck off ur a nob m8, Fri 16 Mar 2012, 20:14, Reply)

not nasty, but wrong
anyway, we;ve had this discussion before, and I am mostly talking about the sci fi
( Citizen Cavy Admires your passion for conformity, Fri 16 Mar 2012, 20:16, Reply)

His sci fi is probably worse than his proper fiction.
