A rare book post

I've recently spent the last four or five days absolutely engrossed in Stephen King's latest offering, Under The Dome.
A flawed hero, a (middle aged) heroine (no young nubile blonde here), a variety of utterly believable villains and a (contained) apocalypse - this book has it all and has echo's of that older piece of King's genius, The Stand.

This blog is supposed to be about my own writing, but I'll be the first to admit that it's not unlike a desert scrub-land in here, so if I read something that engrosses/moves  me, I'll write a mini post about it and then link to it here. Forgive me for my book whoring, (my pleasure in the written word has always been my biggest love) and enjoy.
