If you are digging around in Hugo territory why not go to the original and try and find a copy (short story) of Ralph 124C41+ by the man the award is named after.

[Easy Bakes 253]

Finished all the Hugo winners except last years which is not in paper back yet.

I expect i would have a hard time finding a copy of that story now. unless it was reprinted on the 100th anniversary

Havent really decided what to read next.

[A Nonny Moose 8,261]

If you haven't, try the Foundation Trilogy.

[LexusInfernus 908]

If you haven't, try the Foundation Trilogy.

Thanks, but Ive read those already. The original ones at least, are the sequels and prequels any good?

[Easy Bakes 253]

I've only read the 4th one.

Foundations Edge.

thought it was pretty good.

[Ocram's Razr 964]

For the past week, between studying for my finals, I have been reading Carmilla on and off.

--Ocram

[A Nonny Moose 8,261]

Camilla or Camille? Author?

[Ocram's Razr 964]

The Gothic Novel, Carmilla by Sheridan Le Fanu. It is about a lesbian vampire and it predates Dracula.

--Ocram

[A Nonny Moose 8,261]

Much more macabre than La Dame Aux Camillias, I am sure. Never ran into that one. Got a new set of reading cheaters today, so I may have a look for it next time I'm shopping in London.

[bojoloko 1]

The last fiction book I read was Steinbeck's "In Dubious Battle".

[NMUSpidey 3,956]

I finally finished re-reading Mishima Yukio's "Sea of Fertility" tetralogy. It is a lot easier to read after having lived here longer and knowing more of what he wrote about. I started in on Murakami Haruki's 1Q84 in Japanese, but it's going to take me years to get through it, I fear.

[Easy Bakes 253]

reading EE Smiths Gray Lensman.

[A Nonny Moose 8,261]

reading EE Smiths Gray Lensman.

A fast read. Cliches were one of Doc Smith's greatest failings. I hope you have read the first novels of this series.

at one point or another.even read this one before, just out of new books.

[SIMpleton 2]

Finished reading Iain Banks' Hydrogen Sonata. Chaotic, but well-executed. Funny, in the way that only Banks is. I expected a pretty massive twist regarding Eglyle Parinherm, but it never came...

Ah well, off to re-read the Silmarillion, Hobbit, and LotR Trilogy.
