Won't Pickup Again.

[Snarf]

I read a lot. I have some dragonlance books that are over 20 years old. Must have read them about 3 or 4 times.

Learnt long time ago to never lend my books out…. Not if I want them back anyway. Now if my mates want to read a book. I point to a chair and say make yourself comfortable…

I've read the stuff I'm interested in, which equates to Guard, Sisters, and Orks. I don't think it is possible for me to somehow care less about the Horus Heresy.

That's the way it should be, don't read anything you're not interested in.

That said, McNeill and Abnett have done some pretty good bolter porn. It's still bolter porn, but at least it was fun to read and I was interested in reading it (new to the hobby, didn't know all that much about marines to begin with).

Ah, football and American football... Football (or soccer) is fun to watch, AF not so much.

I'm more of a hockey man, myself. A sport where you can actually punch other players. Used to be a lot more entertaining with the fights but it got rather brutal to the point where ****ing up the other teams' star players was a STRATEGY. Which wasn't cool. Only reason Yzerman lasted 20 years was he had Probert watching out for him. Sorry, I'm in a rambling mood tonight.

Ahhh! You would probably love Aussie Rugby League.
Lots of Tackling, punch ups. Big blokes belting into each other at top speed & NO helmets & body armour like Gridiron.

I totally agre here, i dont read the books, just more marketing crap from GW to make people buy into the Space Marine fan base.

Look into how many books there are for SM's, IG compared to say Eldar, SoB, or even any of the other factions, ny necron books yet??

I tried to read one novel, it was over done, poorly writen and just like any of the others ive flicked through that concentrated on SM's. I dont read anything Space Marine now, bores the hell out of me, id rather spend hours painting other armies than read 'just another SM' novel.

You really should try some of the Caiphus Cain novels by Sandy Mitchell. IG Vs Orks, Necrons, Chaos & all sorts of stuff.
Very humourous, clever & fun. His meeting with a Kroot was incredable & you get lots of background on the 40K universe as well. Sisters make an appearance in one of the later ones. the second last if I remember correctly.

I likely would. Some day I'll have to check it out.

Oh, I still lend out books. I had to rebuy the mistborn trilogy (and several other books), and I'm not even entirely sure who has the originals.

I can't tell you how many copies of 'ender's game' I've bought over the years!

That is one of the greats... I think I've bought the entire series at least 4 times from lending it out to people. The first one is still the best

The only literature I read more than once are rulebooks, codices, and instruction manuals. Novels... I read them once and I'm done.

I'm in the middle of Rynn's World right now and despite and plethora of type-o's I think it's really good. There are some scenes that end abruptly and without detail, it makes me chuckle a little, but over all it's a good read.
