Amesy Posted January 11, 2012 Posted January 11, 2012 Hi Guys, My name is James though I prefer to be called Amesy. Some of you may remember me from a little while back. I've been otherwise engaged with various Family and Personal affairs and have neglected the reading and as such the Book Club for a number of months. I'm ashamed at this fact and hope you may forgive me. Anywho, a New Year, a new beginning and all that jazz. Hopefully I'll be able to remain faithful to you guys once more. I've returned to reading with full force and commitment. I managed to FINALLY finish Peter F. Hamilton's Night's Dawn Trilogy. and since the new year have also finished the entire Dark Tower Series. (I cried my little heart out over the last book. Those that have read them all will understand). I'm now a full blown Kindle convert now too. Never thought that would happen. Seriously, these things are truly amazing and make time fly through a book. I'm currently reading The Painted Man by Peter V. Brett. Thoroughly enjoying every word of it. I hope I can get to know you all better and I would truly love for you lot to get to know me. I'm a really nice guy once you know me. Amesy. Quote
Karsa Orlong Posted January 11, 2012 Posted January 11, 2012 Welcome back Amesy. Glad to hear you finished Night's Dawn and you're enjoying The Painted Man. I've got the second book, Desert Spear, but haven't read it yet - must do so! Quote
lopeanha Posted January 11, 2012 Posted January 11, 2012 Welcome back Amesy I have The painted Man on my tbr pile, please tell us how you liked it when you're finished I always keep myself from reading it, because it's so dauntingly thick Quote
Amesy Posted January 11, 2012 Author Posted January 11, 2012 (edited) Thanks for the warm welcomes, guys. Lopeanha, according to my Kindle I managed 60% in just 3 days. It's fantastically gripping so far. The writing is easy going too. It's not bogged down with names that are hard to pronounce or large confusing words that hurt my poor brain. Karsa, I've already purchased the Kindle book of Desert Spear in eager anticipation. I was going to start on Pandora's Star after The Painted Man but Mr. Hamilton will have to wait just a little longer. Welcome back Amesy. Thanks Chrissy. It's really good to be back. And thank you for my Birthday wishes back in June. Sorry it's taken me until now to say it. Edited January 11, 2012 by Amesy Quote
Karsa Orlong Posted January 11, 2012 Posted January 11, 2012 I was going to start on Pandora's Star after The Painted Man but Mr. Hamilton will have to wait just a little longer. I'll be intrigued to hear what you make of Pandora's Star/Judas Unchained when you get around to them Quote
Amesy Posted January 11, 2012 Author Posted January 11, 2012 I'll be intrigued to hear what you make of Pandora's Star/Judas Unchained when you get around to them I thought reading those before the Void saga would give me a better insight, as I believe they take place in the same universe but the Commonwealth takes place several hundred years before the Void.

Yes, I believe so. I haven't read the Void trilogy, mainly because Judas Unchained had me losing the will to live Quote
Amesy Posted January 11, 2012 Author Posted January 11, 2012 Oh goody! Something to look forward to Quote
Karsa Orlong Posted January 11, 2012 Posted January 11, 2012 Oh goody! Something to look forward to I couldn't figure out how to get out of that sentence once I'd started it I'm sure you'll love it Quote
frankie Posted January 11, 2012 Posted January 11, 2012 Welcome back Amesy, I hope things'll go much smoother for you in 2012, and I hope your mojo returns with vengeance Quote
