Recently finished "The Death of WCW" in about two nights, couldn't put it down. There's a book about this? I know I should hate the scumbags, but I really liked WCW, at least until their budget went tits up and Russo started writing.

To be honest though, I think the place was already screwed before Russo took the reins, mainly because of shoddy writing and veterans abusing their power. Kind of like WWE at the moment. Shame really, I miss having that major alternative, even if they did rip us off on that shoddy March 2000 tour.

Ive just started Dennis Potter's Cold Lazarus. A bit annoying as its a screenplay so it doesnt have much flesh to it besides dialogue and stage directions but its a bleddy good story and I guess a lot of it is down to the imagination. I saw the TV series years ago and I havent got round to reading it yet. Id also like to reread Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep but Im just too busy these days.

I enjoyed it.

I'm currently finishing A Scanner Darkly by Philip K. Dick. Fantastic- it reminds me of something by HR. Geiger in book form in terms of how disturbing it is.

Tony Hawks (The comedian not the skater)- Playing the Moldovians at tennis.
A mad bet with Arthur Smith leaves him trying to challenge and beat every member of the Moldovian football team at tennis.

I've just started Wu Che'eng-en's Monkey, so awesome. I second the right honarable Mr Gaiman's recommendation, shame the illustrations are so poor though.

Serenity: The Official Visual Companion. Features a ton on the making of the film like the complete shooting script, concept drawings, pictures from the set and an in depth interview with Joss Whedon.

It is good. And odd.

I just got my copy of Terry Brooks' new fantasy novel "Armageddon's Children" delivered today.  I admit it; I'm a fantasy junkie.

Jonathan Strange & Mr Norrel. Nice historical fantasy book in a whimsical kinda tone. Now I'm reading Birdsong by Sebastian Faulks for the upcoming term for English.
