Eddie's Fancy

Continuing to crunch through the Thursday Next series, this time she’s babysitting Hamlet in the real world while there’s trouble at home and in the Book World. And enough Shakespeare jokes and Falstaff to make me happy.

However, some of the anti-Denmark jokes are too close to what real politician use when they don’t want you looking behind the curtain.

I’m officially hooked on Thursday Next. They’re not the greatest books ever written, but they’re a good step up from bubblegum too. Thursday joins Jurisfiction and saves the world, hilarity ensues.

I’ve been a long time reader of Stephen King since I started with Salem’s Lot in Junior High and was up all night because I though Hubie Marsten was hanging in my closet. I’ve been slacking off since he finished the Gunslinger books, probably burnout.

I enjoyed Duma Key and blazed through it in a few days, but it was the enjoyment that comes from meeting an old friend, it wasn’t anything I hadn’t read before.
