So what was the last book you read?
I'm cheating a little when I say but I'm reading a Marvel Civil War trade paper back at the moment.

Console Wars by Blake Harris. A great read about the early 90's Sega Vs. Nintendo and how Tom Kalinski and his employees at Sega of America turned the company from underdog to top dog (for a while at least) in a few short years. I've read it twice now and suggest it to anyone who is interested in videogame history or grew up during the console wars.

I need to finish console wars, its such an amazing book. After reading so much of it i have a different view on all of the "of japan" departments of these gaming companies. Alot of what sega of Japan did back in the day i see it alot in Nintendo of Japan today.
Where i have been playing alot of golden axe lately Fist is gonna let me barrow some of his Conan books. I've never read any of them so im excited to check them out.

I highly recommend Console Wars to anyone interested in gaming these days. My expanded thoughts on it here. Most of what I read is comics too these days, though due to my recent X-Files re-re-re-re addiction I started reading one of the novels: X-Files Whirlwind. I'm not sure how many books they made but it's pretty good. Reads just like an episode of the show. |

The last book I read was "The Burning Air" by Erin Kelly. It's an epic book filled with revenge, manipulation, and suspense until the end. Very satisfying and set in the UK.
