Book Swap

[db_pr]

I've finally finished Amber Spyglass!

Here's my list: Pick one and swap another wiht me.


Sabriel- Garth Nix (curios name, huh?)
The Lost Years of Merlin- forgot
Dark Lord of Derkholm- Diana Wynne Jones
Homeward Bounders- Diana Wynne Jones
and uh...that's enough for now, isn't it?

[Gryphon]

The Lost Years of Merlin are by TA Barron. Yawn... I'm so tired.

Fox, I just saw Lyra's Oxford at the bookstore today. Coincidince. :P

[GodMageMajere]

I've finished burrowing through Princess Diaries, enjoyed it quite a bit (yes, even though I'm male. What can I say?). I can't find any of the other books except for Timeline, which I've read many times over. The idea of a YW graphic novelification sounds truly intriguing, I for one wouldn't mind seeing such a thing spark into existance.

[Kathy Li]

Heck, I'd just be happy if someone TPB'd all the issues of The Dreamery, just so's I could read all of DD's Prince Ivan the not-too-Experienced stories in one swell foop.

Heh. Are graphic novels fair game? That's a dangerous button to push with me; I'm doing a project on them for my Library Science class. Some suggestions are:
Watchmen
League of Extraordinary Gentlemen
Sandman
Transmetropolitan
Kingdom Come
Girl Genius
Elfquest
Usagi Yojimbo
Buck Godot
All but Girl Genius, Elfquest, and Usagi Yojimbo should be rated at least PG-13 (well, sometimes Elfquest slips towards the higher end), with occasional flashes of R, but they are all good reads. I'm sure kli6 and/or Rysade have further elaborations on my list; this was discussed in another thread. I don't follow manga much; I leave further elaboration upon that as an exercise for the student

M, No!!! DON'T CALL ME KAT!!!! *mutters and grumbles under her breath*
It's Earwen!!!!!!!
Ahem, anyway, I STILL haven't got a copy of Timelines (so much for being finshed on Saterday) but I am going shopping soon and there is a great bookshop with a SF section that is biggerthan any I have seen before in so I will probaly find it there.
Have you ound Ladies' No.1 yet?

[Gryphon]

Earwen? Sure you don't wanna be called Kat? Earwen makes me think of earwig. And earwigs mae me think of this one book with talking earwigs that could read people's minds. What was that book...? The Hounds of the Morrigan! Oooh, I HATED that book! Sorry, just my opinion. Loathed it, I did. GRRR.

Sorry 'bout that, Kat. :P

So far I don't have ANY of the book swap books that I swapped for. Aug. I oughta just drop out of this. It isn't going well for me.

I'll just sit on the sidelines and suggest books. Does that sound good?

<span class="ev_code_PURPLE">My mom is going to take me to the library sometime this week. And if she refuses....I will have to use force! Mwahahaha! *looks at the people staring at her like she's psycho and crawls into a corner.*</span>

[calliope]

Bwa ha ha! Oh, another new smiley! Was this always here? I love it! Uh, anyway...
DB, I'll swap the Once and Future King (T. H. White) for Lost Years of Merlin. It's about King Arthur. Right now I'm in the whole Middle Ages thing. ^_^ King Pellinore was my favorite character, full of medieval randomness. If you've read that I'll gladly go dig up another.

[db_pr]

Thanks, calliope!

[Kat]

Gryphon - Earwen is elivsh for sea-maiden. If really makes you think of earwigs then I can use the spelling of Eaerwen instead as it is meant to have umlutes (thoes dot things above the vowels in German - I cannot remember how they are spelt) which are not anywhere to be found on my computer and the extra "e" replaces them. So it is suppoesed to be said e-air-wen. No ears invloved.
Soooo, anybody want to swap "Good Omens" with me?

[Gryphon]

Ooo. Okay, I'll try saying it like that. Good Omens. Isn't that by Terry Pratchett? Might be one of the ones my library says it has! Maybe. Oh. I think it is by Terry Pratchett because you're from Ankh-Morpork. :P I'll swap! Hmmm....... Maybe I'll have you read Crusader too.

[db_pr]

Oh! Good Omens is good. Crowley rocks.

*mutters* Hah...Freddy Mercury as the voice of Satan. lol *mutters*

[Wilf]

I too liked Good Omens... the whole thinga bout goodand evil being just different arms of the celestrial civil service also crops in Tom Holt's Only Human. I would particularly reccomend Flying Dutch

[Kat]

Ooops, sorry. I meant to say the dot thing goes over the second letter "a".
Still have not found Timelines. I'm going to order it from the liberay.
