*coughs* It's been December for 7 days...uh...so what are you reprobates reading? Tom Send a noteboard - 08/12/2012 12:28:30 AM
I'm reading Procopius' Secret History in his odd Greek, something that is not Koine and certainly not Attic based on the vocabulary.
Political correctness is the pettiest form of casuistry.

ἡ δὲ κἀκ τριῶν τρυπημάτων ἐργαζομένη ἐνεκάλει τῇ φύσει, δυσφορουμένη, ὅτι δὴ μὴ καὶ τοὺς τιτθοὺς αὐτῇ εὐρύτερον ἢ νῦν εἰσι τρυπώη, ὅπως καὶ ἄλλην ἐνταῦθα μίξιν ἐπιτεχνᾶσθαι δυνατὴ εἴη. – Procopius

Ummaka qinnassa nīk!

For its flaws, the Malazan books are much better than Goodkind. Larry - 16/12/2012 12:04:06 AM 861 Views
Still trying to do Malazan, and Goodkind got decent again recently Isaac - 20/12/2012 02:55:56 AM 815 Views
Series of that length, not really (unless you haven't read Harry Potter yet, I guess). Legolas - 16/12/2012 08:39:29 AM 862 Views
