I've read about a chapter a month in On Her Majesty's Secret Service.
It's not that I'm a slow reader and it's not that I'm not interested in the book. Too many other good things, like Project Runway reruns, keep getting in the way of my leisure reading time.

Ignore what people say about Tolkien. The US has produced far superior stuff in the fantasy genre. I'm talking "The Chronicles of Thomas Covenant", and this, which I'm reading at the moment.

The book reads like a psychedelic cross between Mervyn Peake, Charles Dickens and Geoffery Chaucer. |

i've only read about 20 pages, but it's readable, it's not live shoveling bricks through your eyes or anything, and it's the only version i've read so i've got nothing to compare it to |
