Now my room's nice n tidy, I've seen my bookshelf. So last week I started reading a novel for the first time in a while. Catch up on the backlog of books I've bought but haven't got round to reading. Started on The Diamond Throne by David Eddings.
Haven't read any of his stuff since the epic Belgariad series, probably about 15 years ago. Felt really comfortable settling back into the thing I remembered and liked the best; the witty banter between the characters.
Characters are great too. All very vivid. The plot is very well-paced though. And has a great balance between things working out well for the heroes, and setbacks. All in all great fun, without being cheap or cheesy. Hopefully I'll get the other two books of the trilogy finished within the next three weeks. Then I might officially count myself as a reader again after a long, long lull.
