User Profile
My usual fare in reading is fantasy and science-fiction, with an occasional foray into historical fiction or biographies.
I recently finished re-reading Mercedes Lackey's Valdemar novels. I also enjoy Jasper Fforde's surrealist humor. And I somehow bored my way through the first book of "The Realmgate Wars".. not bothering with the rest of that series.
