    I like Bird man and Pig Island, although and Kat will disagree about it, I found Pig Island one of the best.
  2. I enjoyed it greatly, I finished it quite quickly and would recomend it to anyone.
  3. I'm going to swim against the tide here, but I think the book is awful. I won't spoil it for those who have yet to read it but its pretty poor, in fact I remember being so annoyed by the book that it ended up going "flying"!
  4. I like cheap chocolate ice cream with some strawberry sauce, simple but soooooo good. Our local all you-can-eat buffet has good ice cream, most importantly, I can have as much as I like . I never manage more than a couple of spoonfulls though.
  5. Probably the Stand by Stephen King.
  6. I have a few cohen songs on the ole' Ipod, good suggestions.
  7. I really enjoyed Gideon and Macabre, I may pick the others up when I get paid. I forgot Chasm, excellent book. Very original and really well paced.
  8. I'm going to admit that the cover made me pick the book up, but the story is top notch. You'll definately have fun reading it.
  9. Has anyone had a chance to read this excellent book? I found a battered copy in Preston Uni years ago and its a great read. I wholeheartedly recommend ths book, and Mr Laws other books. I've included the blurb from the back page for you guys to get a feel fir it: Mr Draegerman requests the pleasure of your company. If you come with us, this fifty thousand is yours. You get another two hundred thousand when you get there. Jack Draegerman loves deals. He made his first fortune in the fields of architecture, engineering and design, with a reputation not only as a ruthless business man but also as an infamous director of some of the most extreme horror movies ever made. No one has seen Jack Draegerman for ten years. He lives in a huge fortress he designed and built himself. Known as The Rock, its interior is a crazy structure of labyrinthine, descending corridors. With no way out. But now, a band of uniformed henchmen is approaching a selection of unconnected people on Draegerman's behalf. he wants them to visit him, and he's prepared to pay for the privilege. Because Jack Draegerman has made contact with a Daemonic force. A Daemonic force who also loves a deal

    Your Age?

    I'm old enough to know better and young enough for it not to matter.
  11. I hope we'll be seein more, the characters were quite interesting. I wouldn't put it past ITV to put a new series together.
  12. I liked the magic cottage, its a good read. More atmospheric than scary but a good read all in all.
  13. Personally, I found the ending very fitting to the subject matter of the program
  14. I think you missed the point of the book Rox, the point was to shock and disgust. It was an exercise in the obscene, which apparently worked. Personally, Fight Club is a better book but Haunted really bears witness to his ability to convey disturbing emotional through very short prose. He succeeded where many others fail dismally.
  15. Any Tool video, very strange but watchable.
  16. The Name of the Wind (The Kingkiller Chronicle: Day One) is well written fantasy book by Patrick Rothfuss, well worth a read. I enjoyed the riftwar series as well, very entertaining.
  17. I've listened to most of those, I'm a long term Paradise lost fan. I've never been able to get on with Inkubus Sukkubus although I'm not sure why.
  18. Your idea of a "bloody good band" and mine diifer somewhat, but I'll let you off. Their sound just lacks something, which in my mind makes them poo. The world war two song was alright, but the others, not so great.
  19. All good suggestions. . . . . . . . . . Except for MCR. Theres no excuse for MCR.
  20. I've already got Tool, Aperfect circle, Incubus, and audioslave. Nice choices. My metallica catalogue is also complete. I'm getting the "best of" the doors. Good suggestions so far, cheers guys.
  21. Hey folks, I need your help! I need to refresh my Ipods library and I'm turning to you, yes you, the people of the book club forum to aid me in this endeavor. I like most rock, heavy rock and metal. I like some oldies, classic rock n roll and the like. I'm willing to give almost anything a go. Any suggestions?
