    Books, mainly SF and fantasy.

    Film, largely fantasy (I was 12 when Fellowship of the Ring came out and went to the cinema to see it 4 times).

    TV, mostly - you've guessed it - fantasy. You can't beat Game of Thrones and Walking Dead, though I do like a good bit of British comedy here and there.

    Oh, and also zombies. Zombies are interesting.

  1. Notice you haven't been around the forum for a few weeks so just popping in to say howdy and hope all is good with you. Happy new year :D

  2. Yeah, I was thinking I'd heard it somewhere before too . . . creepy!!
  3. This short story is free for the next three days . . .
  4. Seeing as I harassed Gaia about forgetting to post book pictures on here, I figured I may as well post my own latest acquisitions. These were from the Works (£1.99 each, 3 for £5): And this one comes courtesy of the lovely Tim, who took pity on me for missing the Manchester Gollancz Fest and sent me a signed copy of Steelheart in consolation. Thanks again, Tim!
  5. Thanks Gaia! Just make sure you don't forget next time. Just kidding. Yay for new books and birthday times!!
  6. Ooh, for fantasy you might also try the Craft sequence by Max Gladstone, which starts with Three Parts Dead. I wasn't totally overwhelmed by it myself, but the world is certainly unique, and I've heard the series gets better and better. You might also like Chris Wooding's Ketty Jay series. I've fairly recently discovered The Expanse, a SF series by James S.A. Corey. The first book is called Leviathan Wakes, and it's a lot of fun. Also, I can't recommend the authors Patrick Rothfuss and Steven Erikson highly enough.
  7. For fantasy, you could try Prince of Thorns by Mark Lawrence (Broken Empire series), or The Blade Itself by Joe Abercrombie (First Law trilogy).
  8. You should check out the TV series on Youtube - me and my sister both LOVE it. Do you have any plans for your birthday?
  9. Horrible Histories is awesome. Hope you had a lovely birthday! Where abouts in the UK were you?
