September Reads
Oct. 1st, 2011 01:20 pmNot a bad month, all in all. I also managed to get in lots of workouts in September, so I feel like it was successful!

09/29/2011 Galaxy Quest Global Warning! (gn) by Scott Lobdell/Ilias Kyriozis
I've liked Byrne's Star Trek comics from the last couple years, but never read any of his "superhero" stuff. I was missing out! Next Men is great. Highly recommended.
Currently reading MZB's massive mid-20th century circus historical, The Catch Trap. I really like it. Marion apparently worked on this book for at least a couple decades before it was eventually published in 1979. An excerpt was published in 1961 in the Mattachine Review! (If you don't know what the Mattachine Review was, then shame on you -- I'm taking away your Gay Card.)
I'm getting close to the end of my Marion Zimmer Bradley read. I've only got the "gothics," her "lesbian" pseudonymous potboilers, and a couple random items (Hunters of the Red Moon & sequel, and Warrior Woman) left on the stack. And her last solo Darkover novel, The Heirs of Hammerfell, which I can't seem to get into. Oh, and several "all-star" collaborative novels with Marion's name on the cover from the '90's (Glenraven & sequel, Black Trillium & sequel, Tiger Burning Bright.) I tend to discount these as being bona-fide MZB works, but I suppose I'll read them eventually -- especially the Trillium sequence, since I'm a fan of all three writers involved in that project.
I'm between audiobooks at the moment. Think I'll queue up Ready Player One when I get back to the gym (been battling a cold for a few days, so I haven't had the energy for a workout. Tomorrow, I promise!)
