Should not have open b-day presents while work still needed to be done. I feel like I might be on a GRRM kick for a while. Given the size of A Dance With Dragons. Which like Storm of Swords is split into two volumes for paperback publishing. Making it like the hardback so expensive i'm glad i got it as a gift.
Also got the first season of Game Of Thrones on DVD. So I'll finally be able to see if its as good as everyone says. Again struck by the size of the set. It one of those really bulky fold out sets with really nice big pics of the cast on it. But really the 10 55 minute episode boxset? That's larger than DS9 slimline boxset with 26 episodes on it. So dang, lot of packaging.
Last Cool gift was a copy of Turn Coat by Jim Butcher. The eleventh (out of 13 for now) book in the Dresden Files. Which aren't epic fantasy like aSoIaF but more light hearted fun kind of urban fantasy novel about a professional wizard named Harry. (after Houdini) Dresden
Any way, uni work calls....
