Why? Got an annoying book talk? Well I know people that made up a book talk at the day of the presentation, they would make up: the title, plot, characters, #pages, and more during their speech.

But u could try reading the hobbit of the Eradon series. Those are good books...lots of battle and adventure.

Now reading A Song of Ice and Fire series, by George R. R. Martin, like pretty much everyone else in the world. Though I can see why. Already blew through two of the books, and I have to say that this is one of the best series I've ever read.
I'd make a summary of the story, but there's no way to dumb down the story to do so. Plus, it's famous enough as it is.

Now reading Brisingr by Christopher Paolini. It's been a while since I read a Fantasy book for the last time and, in fact, it took some 80 pages to "accept" things that used to amaze me years ago (like magic and dragons). More importanly, I read Eragon and Eldest a long while ago... ergo, at the beginning I did not remember most of the names.

Things are fine now. Paolini's writing is quite good IMO and the translation into Italian is very fluid. I don't like accurate descriptions of violent things (it's kind of a forced way to make a book "cool"), but the rest is nice.

Finished "I più grandi eventi meteorologici della Storia" by Paolo Corazzon (I doubt this book's been translated into English, though, so ignore it) and started "LCSI: Morte sulla Luna" by Steven Harper (original name of the book: "Dead Man on the Moon"). It's rather fluid, I like it.

Done. As I said it's rather fluid and interesting, without too much sci-fi and descriptions on it.

It's rather disturbing, however, how the book... ends. Well, in theory it ends, but in really it's almost as if there's one less chapter there. What happens to all protagonists, even in the short term? Who knows.

The ending itself isn't bad, it's just that it isn't complete. Weird.
