    Question What are you reading at the moment?

    I am currently reading "Dr Fischer of Geneva" by Graham Greene as a change from SF which is my usual fare. Before that I read Double Vision by Tricia Sullivan which was OK but not brilliant (not as good as MAUL anyway).
    I thought it was a tampon joke!

    Finished the GG while on the train and am now reading The Snow by Adam Roberts, quite good so far but reminds me of J G Ballard.

    "Sinatra: The Life" I used to think Franik was cool... halfway into the book now, I can confirm he was an absolute dipshit! I'll hopefully keep enjoying his tunes at least.

    Default Jack Buck

    Currently reading Jack Buck's (longtime voice of the Cardinals, and in broadcaster's wing of baseball's Hall of Fame, football's HOF, etc) autobiography, "That's a Winner!"

    Just started, but as a guy who grew up with his ear glued to the radio, letting Jack teach me the finer points of the game, I've been looking forward to this read for a long time.
