Steven Erikson's Toll the Hounds. Which I got signed. Won't be reading it for a while as this is vol 8 and I have only read four.

Tales of Beadle the Bard
Already about a month ago, as I'm determined to finally read all the unread books I've been collecting for years

We tell ourselves to stop buying books and comics, because we simply don't have room to keep them (living in a flat). But we still buy them. The last book I bought was "Red Seas under Red Skies" (Polish translation). And then there are a lot of books that we bought but haven't read yet.

Orcs - Omnibus Edition
By Stan Nicholls
Only about 50 pages in, but enjoying it so far.
Only chose it because there was a Gemmell quote on the front... |

Rups, that's a good fun book.
Not the last book I bought as I bought it ages ago, but just received The British Invasion anthology from Cemetary Dance.

Bought that a couple of years ago from the Sci-Fi book club. Think it's a pretty good read personally

....and another vote for the excellent Mr. Nicholls and his excellent Orcs trilogy - bought mine a couple of years ago and mine bears the tongue in cheek greeting "much better than James Barclay!" by Mr. Nicholls himself!

Thats not my car by Fiona Watts. My son is obsessed with this series.
The Shadow Queen by Anne Bishop is the last book I bought for myself.

Can't recall the last book, but I walked past Waterstone's today and they have a 3 for 2 offer on all books! I am making my list right now!!! I was going to save my pennies unti FanCon, but I might have to dip into that pot now. I've been after Scott Lynch's second 'Gentlemen' book for ages, and I think I'll top up my Steven Erikson collection. Then there's the last two in George RR Martin's fantastic 'Song of Fire and Ice' series... Lucky it's payday tomorrow.
