Good stories with some good humor here and there. Start with Expendable. The books are all standalone but interconnected and reading them in order is "mostly" neccesary because there is a continuity to them. Commitment Hour Expendable Vigilant Hunted Ascending I like William Browning Spencer. The man is insane. Resume With Monsters Zod Wallop The Return Of Count Electric Phillip Pullman = excellent fantasy The Golden Compass The Subtle Knife The Amber Spyglass And so much more! <G> > > JJ > Who is reading more SciFi books than anything lately... > and IT'S ALL BRIN-L'S FAULT!! :p Wait a sec! Its *your* brain. Can't you take a little responsibility? <G> xponent Significant Irritant Maru rob ________________________________ You are a fluke of the universe. You have no right to be here.
