I usually don't just buy one, so here's what I got last time:

Jim Butcher - Summer Knight: Book Four of the Dresden Files
Diana Holquist - Sexiest Man Alive
Laurie Notaro - The Idiot Girl and the Flaming Tantrum of Death

Last one was a freebie.

Would never contemplate paying full price for either but got them in one of WH Smith's deals. I enjoyed AC more than I expected. Just about to start PotE.

I hope you enjoy Pillars of the Earth as much as I did. The sequel, World Without End, is even better, if you can believe it.

Oh yea, and Legends II is the most recent purchase. Got a few freebies from here-and-there in the past 2 days also.

Currently replacing anything I can in my library with ebook versions, although it's a lot harder than I imagined. Getting hold of Ray Bradbury books (legally) is a major pain. Not surprising really after his comments on the ebook format:

Quote:
There is no future for e-books because they are not books.
E-books smell like burned fuel.
Other than that endless search for Bradbury I've been downloading classics such as Don Quixote and others.

Is it any good? I've been burned too many times by King in the last five or so years, and yet I still buy his books when they're released (when will I learn?).
