    Thanks for adding me as a friend on shelfari. I've had some other stuff going on, and therefore it took me a while to get back to the website. I look forward to finding out more about you and what you are reading.

    Hi, thanks for the friend invite! There are lots of books on your shelf that I haven't got round to reading yet - do you have any good recommendations?

    Hi. Thanks for adding me as a friend. Indeed a read a few books by Clive Barker. They can be quite brutal but I still find them more interesting and less predictable than your average Stephen King book. Also he is a bit more into H.P. Lovecraft which I always like.

    Take care, Jonas

    HI, Based on our books in common, can I recommend a couple? THe first is, The Alchemist. I kinda group it with Illusions & Jonathan Livingston Seagull. A fable-like, could be true, lessons of life kinda book. The second (and more of a long shot) is Fire From WIthin by Carlos Castaneda. More metaphysical but also dealing with seeking the answer to "How does the world really work?"

    Greetings and thanks for the request. In reference to your question concerning the Foundation, "Is it as good as I've heard .......?" can only be answered by yourself. I WILL add my thumbs up to the whole trilogy, but I've found very few Asimov titles ([math books])(hated math) that I didn't like.

    Thanks for the invite and the recommendation -- Weaveworld is one of my favorite books, but haven't read it in quite a few years, so probably time to revisit :)

    Hi, I loved Weaveworld! I first read it when I was sixteen but recently reread it and enjoyed it so much more.
    PS, very jealous that you met Clive Barker!
