The Color of Magic

I just finished watching the British adaptation of Terry Pratchett’s The Color of Magic and The Light Fantastic. The film is based off of the first two books of the Discworld series which I have not read. One of the reason I have not touched the series is because it is currently 36 novels long. I DON’T HAVE THAT MUCH TIME! Geez. A 36 book series. I have also read Good Omens (with Neil Gaiman) but didn’t really care much for the book. Maybe I need to re-read it. Anyway, getting off topic here. I liked The Color of Magic and Tim Curry plays the bad guy which is awesome. I am now tempted to pick up the first book in the Discworld series.

Any fans of the Discworld books seen The Color of Magic and read the book? Did you like it?

General Stuff

Since January 2008 I have been using this blog to write about the books i've read and other book related news that I find interesting. I also find pirates interesting so from time to time I may blog about pirates. I see this as killing two birds with one stone.

Review Policy

Dear Publishers/Authors,

I am always willing to discuss reviewing you book on my blog. Discovering new authors is one of the things I love about book blogging. However, I do not accept all books for review. If it's not in my usual genre chances are I am going to decline the offer.

A couple of genres I dislike are: Self-Help, YA Paranormal, Hardcore Science-Fiction, and Depressing Memoirs.

Some genres I really enjoy: Pirates, Satire, Pulp Fiction, Queer Fiction, YA Fiction (Non-Paranormal and Non-Gossip Girl-esq) and Comical Memoirs.

Here's the thing. If you e-mail me asking me to review a book, I will always respond and let you know if I am interested or not. If you don't hear back from me, feel free to send a follow-up e-mail. No longer will I just ignore your e-mail.
