Ah, thanks, man. I read Cornwell's Grail series, and, in retrospect, I didn't find them all too original.
I postponed reading the Sharpe series - national duty, for me, as a Spaniard - because of it.

But I hear that the Arthurian adventures are far more interesting. :)



Myself, postponed Underworld, and reading "The Dread Empire" by Glen Cook. Cook, probably one of my favorite fantasy authors. So, good times.

Lots and lots of work, but good times.

Apart from this I'm reading lots of gamebooks...

Currently reading "The Last Ship," the novel from the 1980's that inspired the current TV series on TNT. Interesting to note the differences between the two, mostly that in the book it's a nuclear war that starts the whole thing off and in the TV show it's a biological plague.

The book put me off at first; the first 40 pages or so didn't make much sense but then the action started and it's gotten a lot better. I actually put it down for a week or two until I saw the first episode of the TV show, then picked it up and am determined to plow through it. 8)

Joe Abercrombie's The Last Argument of Kings. I'm rereading it for the 7th time.
