So, I thought that as it's just after 3 in the morning and I really should go to bed soon, I'd just put up a short blog entry, and here it is.

First off, if anyone might be interested, I got the results of my English GCSE yesterday morning, I scored 298 out of 400 and got an A. So not quite as thick as I thought then :D

Everything else is pretty much the same as it was last entry, so not much more to say really.

So, here's my

Top 10 Fiction Books:-

10. Soul Music:- Terry Pratchett.
I'm not a big fan of Terry Pratchett, but I do like a few of his Discworld books. This one is brilliant and a must-read for musicians.

9. Manifest Destiny:- Barry Longyear.
I really liked reading this book, part of it was made into the film Enemy Mine, but the book is much better. It's also where I got my blog/band name from.

8. Nostradamus Ate My Hampster:- Robert Rankin.
I think that Robert Rankin is a brilliant author and I love everything by him that I've read (which is almost all of his books), it was difficult to choose which one's to put in this top ten, and where to put them, but this one is a great story with some amazing ideas and brilliantly written. I should make a point of saying that I was introduced to Robert Rankin's work by Old Nick.

7. The Technicolor Time Machine:- Harry Harrison.
A great piece of Sci-Fi fun written by a master.

6. Fire Pattern:- Bob Shaw.
Bob Shaw is, just about, my favourite author (Robert Rankin comes a very close second). I love this story, the ideas within it are fantastic and it deals with a subject that I have been facinated with for years.

5. The Long Dark Teatime Of The Soul:- Douglas Adams.
I really liked the Hitch-Hickers books that Douglas Adams wrote but this book and it's companion 'Dirk Gently's Holistic Detective Agency' are just brilliant.

4. The Guardians Of Time:- Poul Anderson.
This is still the only book that I have ever sat and read from cover to cover in one sitting. I love time travel stories and this book has everything anyone into time travel could possibly want.

3. I Am Legend:- Richard Matheson.
Just a fantastic book, written in such a way that I couldn't help but get caught up in the story, simply excellent.

2. The Antipope:- Robert Rankin.
The second book on the list by Mr Rankin, not much I can say about this really except that this is where it all begins.

1. Other Days, Other Eyes:- Bob Shaw.
The first book by Bob Shaw I ever read and still just about my favourite. Brilliant ideas, excellently written and a fantastic read, what more could you want.

Well, that all from me for now,

See ya!
