I don't know when or if I'll ever get around to writing my reviews, but I'm risking losing track, so here's a place-keeper entry:

January 2008:  The Carhullan Army
                      Daughter of Night

February 2008: Odd and the Frost Giants

March 2008:  The Treasures of Weatherby
    ongoing: The Golden Notebook

Also, in case any of you are wondering what's going on with me, I quit drinking coffee about 12 days ago and have been pretty much incapacitated by the shockingly severe symptoms of caffeine withdrawal since then.  Just started feeling human again about 24 hours ago, which was when I finally realized why I felt so hideous.  Don't be surprised if it's another week or so before you hear from me again.

Ages and ages ago, [info]dougmander and I read some sagas aloud to each other. One was about Arrow Odd. The first amazing thing he did was to travel all the way to Permia. After that, each time he met someone new, they would ask, "Are you the Odd who went to Permia?" and he would get increasingly weary of the question.

(Ha ha! The first millennium humor!)

So, is Odd and the Frost Giants about the Odd who went to Permia?

(Ha ha! That third millennium humor!)

This Odd goes to Asgard. The book was written by Neil Gaiman for World Book Day. It was dirt cheap, but for the fact that I had to have it shipped from the UK.

Oh, and look!
Neil just posted a link to a review:

I'll have to start writing my own reviews soon. Odd was a delight, and The Carhullan Army" was amazing.
