    Thanks for the welcome.

    In answer to your question, no, actually, I don't.

    Just finished rereading the first two installments in the King Killer Chronicles (Patrick Rothfuss) and I can't wait for the third one to be completed!

    Presently I'm reading:

    Currently rereading the A Song of Ice and Fire series by George R. R. Martin

    I'm on book 3 and wanted to get ahead of the opener for season two of the TV Series which is on on Sunday April 1st.

    The TV Series is called "Game of Thrones" which is actually book 1 of the series.

    Oh, and if anybody is wondering, I pretty much always read when smoking a cigar alone. Of course it would be rude to read while smoking in company so I don't then.

    Finished Jim Butcher's "Side Jobs" (part of the Harry Dresden Series) at work, started on and finished R.A. Salvatore's Servant of the Shard and just finished his Promise of the Witch King.

    Great books, but now I'm out on my Kindle... damn thing.

    Excellent series and show. Savor them while you're still reading them, because the wait in between books is a bitch!

    I'm finishing up my re-read of The Lord of the Rings. I haven't read them since the 5th grade, and it was a better time than any to pick them up again. I'm also reading The Wind Through the Keyhole by Stephen King. I'm a big King fan, and a big Dark Tower fan too.

    Believe me, I'm savoring them..........LOL..........I'm almost done book 4 and will be starting book 5 by the end of the weekend.

    I'm a huge LotR fan and have read it, and The Hobbit, many times!

    My wife has everything King has ever written. I like most of his stuff too but never cared much for Tommyknockers. I recently read the Dark Tower series at my wife's suggestion and had a tough time getting going on the 1st book. I found that about half way through it I was hooked.......lol.

    The Tommyknockers is one of the few King books I have yet to read. I'm glad to hear you're enjoying A Song of Ice and Fire, I'm curious to hear what you think of the fifth book, when you finish.
