Hello from the Canadian prairies
Hi folks.
Oops! Forgive me, that should have said "Hello", not "Hell"! My bad. My name is Xander Richards. I'm a voracious and enthusiastic reader when time allows (and soon to be a published author, but this isn't the place to get into that). I love Sci-Fi novels: Asimov, Clarke ('Rendezvous With Rama' is an all-time favorite), Niven & Pournelle ('The Mote In God's Eye') and so on. I'm also super keen on espionage and action stuff like Fleming, Clancy, Cussler (loved 'Raise The Titanic') and MacLean (especially 'Ice Station Zebra'). I also read and thoroughly enjoyed the Harry Potter series. I love a good novel which immerses you and makes you feel like you're somehow in it. I live just about in the middle of Canada, which being the province of Saskatchewan where, at the moment, it's raining. Well, that's all for now, hope to make some friends here. Feel free to say "hi" back and chat. Cheers, Xander. Last edited by Dr. Drib; 04-02-2012 at 06:45 AM. Reason: Whoops! A typo in the subject line. |

Thank you everyone for the kind welcome, I appreciate it.
The next book on my to-read list is "The Lotus Maiden, An Artist's Search For The Secrets Of The Sky Goddess" by Jonathon Earl Bowser, if anyone's heard of it. Cheers, Xander. |
