He's hardly had time to do that yet! It's been, what, some months since he finished the police procedural?

I'm glad you did - I know many people that when they see that type of reference they'll run out and buy the book.

Weird - I'll drop him a note and tell him to add it to the bibliography if they go to another edition :-). ======================================================================= To unsubscribe, subscribe, or access the archives of this list, visit . ------------------------------ Date: Mon, 03 Feb 2003 19:02:34 -0800 From: Jim Hunt Subject: (glencook-fans) Newbie intro Hi, Just subscribed to the list and thought I'd take a moment to introduce myself. I first read and enjoyed the first 3 books of the Black Company series over 10 (15? it's been a while) years ago. Recently I was delighted to discover through the Sci Fi Book Club that there were a number of other Black Company novels available, which I have since devoured. Although the subsequent books were of uneven quality ("Bleak Seasons", in particular, seemed quite tedious), I thought the series finished on a relatively high note with "Water Sleeps" and "Soldiers Live". I've been a sci fi addict for quite a long time now. Recently I've been reading Jordan's "Wheel of Time" series and Terry Goodkind's "Sword of Truth" books. Other authors I've read extensively include Heinlein, Eddings, Clarke, Asimov, Feist, George R. R. Martin, and many others I can't recall at the moment. Anyway, I'm currently working my way through the mail list archives and the FAQ and looking forward to new discussions on the list.
