Book #1 A Canticle for Leibowitz by Walter M Miller, JR

Well I had this by my desk and I started reading it last year while I was waiting for City of Heroes to load up. I had picked it up because it was a Hugo winning book. Of course with it being post atomic war situation it didn't make me want to just jump right in and read it. The plus side was the writing was so well done I continued reading it even as I disliked the entire setup of the book. I read to have a good time, not to get dragged down by the after effects of war and human stupidity. I enjoyed the book but I don't think I will read it or the sequel for it that was written by someone else.


Also on the website side of life I had to increase my shipping rates due to the postal service increase.

It had the fingerprints of that decade all over it. Now if I read church Latin I think I could have gotten more out of it. This was from 1956 as a short story and then 1959 as a novel. I just shudder tho think that it would really happen.

I just checked out Amazon reviews for the sequel and they are harsh. http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/0553380796/qid=1136837228/sr=8-1/ref=sr_8_xs_ap_i1_xgl14/104-1533899-6535908?n=507846&s=books&v=glance
