Finished with Finders Keepers. Great story. very well built up climax and a little tease on the end that leaves you waiting with your tungue outside your mouth longing for part 3 The Suicide Prince. It is really remarkable that he can write so well in so many genres. Quite an accomplishment. As of now he has tried Fantasy, SF, Horror, "ordinary" novels and crime and done well in all.
I'll wander back to the world of Swan Song now. But somehow the pages always fly by quicker and without me noticing the time when i read King compared with any other author. For release reading i have Wise and Foolish Kings on the side. About the valois Kings of France. Read about Philip the Fortunate. Rather strange nickname considering he was King when the french was beaten to pulp by the english at the battle of Crecy and when the Black Death ( Bubonic Plague in other words) wiped out about 40% of Frances population. I wouldn't call him fortunate.

I haven't picked my book up for 2 days, have been so busy. Will try a bit later today as the story does keep calling to me.

Kurben, at the rate that you read I guess we'll be seeing you back on here in about an hour or so? ;-D

Highly doubt that. About a quarter to one here. I'll go to bed soon to try to sleep. Perhaps read a litlle of the next Valois king before that, John The Good (jean in french of course). I think i let Swan Song rest until tomorrow.

Finders Keepers is very well written. It's got a little something else to it . . .there's something different that I can not really describe at the moment . . .I love it.

Morrie reminds me of Ed Sheeran . . .

:laugh:

He came to NZ a short while ago, he seems like a really neat down-to-earth kind of person. I think he would be a hoot to party with.

That may have come out a little differently to what I actually intended. :Oo:

Edit: AND I read your post wrong... I thought you said THE BOOK reminded you of Ed! :rofl:
