What literary delights are you delving into this December?

[GOLLUM]

Oh, there are several characters (such as Erich) that are not at all likeable... but interesting. This is a novel that grows with re-readings (as does much of Leiber). Changewar, by the way, has a tale involving Greta's odd choice for a beau much more personally, as well as a quite lengthy tale involving Greta herself, in the reign of Queen Elizabeth I....

When I get time I may just track the other books down. I'm about halfway through now and I like it more than the opening salvos, I'll post my thoughts once I've finished. Should be when the clock strikes 12 to hail in the New Year tonight.

I'm currently reading Destiny by Fiona MIntosh, The Voyage of the Jerle Shannara Trilogy (all in one book) by Terry Brooks, Acorna's World by Anne McCaffrey and The Last Templar by Raymond Khoury, while also re-reading Northern Lights by Philip Pullman, The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring by J R R Tolkien, and Freedom's Landing by Anne McCaffrey

wow i didnt realise i had so much going on at once, maybe i should cut back down to reading only a few books at once...

How do you do that, Sassy? Personally, I start getting characters and situations mixed up if I have more than two or three books on the go at the same time...
