I finally got around to reading "Regina's Song". It's by my favorite author - can't believe it took me so long. Anyway, it was awesome, even though I saw the ending coming from the beginning. But it was nothing less than I'd expect from David Eddings. Excellent.

And then I went and saw Return of the King again last night, and the awesome-ness was continued. I adore that movie. In my opinion, the movies are a lot better than the books - and I've been reading the books steadily since I was eleven, so that's a big compliment.

And... now I'm going to hide before I'm lynched by rabid LOTR purists.

I hope it wins Best Picture, though... The theater was still packed tonight, so there's also hope that it'll make more money than Titanic.

We'll see, I guess.

:D Yay! You read <b?Regina's Song</b>! Wasn't it good? Not quite his usual style of fantasy; definitely more modern. And I saw the ending as well.

Well, not <i>all</i> of it, but I knew the big secret.

It was excellent, and different from his fantasy books, but you can't mistake his style at ALL. Which is what made it so damn *good*. It's David Eddings. How can it be bad?

And yeah... most of the ending was pretty easy to call, but that didn't take anything away from the book.
