Nothing Fitnessy today!

Ok, today is going to be a bit about Nerdery, and I even promise I won't rant about the toilet issue yesterday!


Ok, just started reading a great series by Markus Heitz called The Dwarves. I have been having a fantastic read on this series. It is like reading Tolkien, but without the feeling like you are walking through brain jelly. The book is fast paced and pretty entertaining. The character dynamics are worth the read alone. I have never seen such a weird blend of characters duking it out against all odds like this one before. I have just started reading his second book The War Of The Dwarves, but unfortunately haven't gotten anywhere in it yet, as Paula banned me from reading for a few days so I could "sleep properly". I blame the author, and my boss for keeping me up until 2 in the morning two days in a row.


Ok, if any of you can find it, easy if you live in the UK, just go down to some of the big arse book chains in London, you can find a few compendiums of HP Lovecraft. The one I am reading is The Call of Cthulu and Other Weird Stories!. This series is fantastic. I do recommend that you stop reading around 9 at night. For some reason, it really messed up my sleep for a few days, when I was reading it til 11pm. It has NOTHING to do with Dogon and a town of fish people intruding unwantedly in my dreams WHATSOEVER!!


Also on the go right now is Mass Effect: Retribution. I have read a bit of a way in, and I must say it does tie the game in quite well. These books are desgined to be read with the game and the Comic series. This all culminates in the final installment of the game Mass Effect 3 which, this link points to ME2 as there is not a full site up for it yet.


Well folks, I know it wasn't filled with fitness stuff today, but you do have to embrace the inner nerd sometimes, so I did lol. Please, definitely get your hands on a copy of the Dwarves series... fantastic read. I can't wait for more!
