| Hmm... I really don't know I'm trying to decide between going back an finishing the good Dragonlance books, starting Forgotten Realms, finishing Warcraft, or starting Warhammer.
I also need to finish the Dark Tower, but Wolves of the Calla is just pissing me off.
I recently bought a set of three books set in the Myst universe, and a really old copy of Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse.
As far as non-fiction goes, I'm still looking into reading Nietzsche (stfu garin) and Socrates.
EDIT: My copy of Four Horsemen isn't as old as originally thought, it was printed in 1957, not 1918 like I had originally thought. | |

| Maybe.
But seriously, I want to get back on topic. King's The Dark Tower is something I can actually talk about concerning literature and I don't want to not be able to talk about it at all just because we're getting wildly off topic. | |

| well look, I read the Drizzt books and looved them, but fantasy books have always been a little... well... fantastic for my taste, there seems to be NO realism which gets hard to read. | |
