Put brain in neutral. Enjoy.

Is that ghost-written or did he do it himself?

Just finished 'Midnight Lamp' 3rd of Gwyneth Jones' Rock N Roll Reich sequence, ace. Starting a Norman Spinrad collection 'The Star-Spangled Future', looks good.

Also an overview of 100 years of popular (mainly US) music, 'Rockin Out' (ouch) by Reebee Garofalo, contains just enough, but not too much, musicology, (ie very simple).

And 'Fantasy Island' by Atkinson & Elliot, about the delusions that inform the NuLab project, Blair's legacy: a fantasy island trying to live beyond its means at every level | Business | The Guardian

The bits about how everybody will be able to have a rewarding, creative job, was the funniest/most depressing.

He wrote it himself when he was out with his neck injury in like 2004. It's not very good but it's better than the ghost written ones. He just kind of races through the story like "I did this, and then I did that, and then I did this" without going into any detail about anything. Also it's pretty old so it is all before he was a main event guy. I'll give you a shot of it once you get through the Chris Jericho one.

WWE books not written by ghost writers, in order:

1 Mick Foley - Have A Nice Day
2 Chris Jericho - A Lion's Tale
3 Mick Foley - Foley Is Good
4 Adam Copeland - On Edge

Tony Visconti's autobiography.

Read Chris Brookmyre's latest, A Snowball In Hell last week. I'll not give anything away, I'll simply say it's fucking superb.

I'm a couple of chapters through The Dice Man - Luke Rhinehart and about two-thirds of my way through The God Delusion - Richard Dawkins.

...my attention span is way too short, though, it's probably going to take me about three months before I actually finish either of those two.
...and I borrowed Exit Music, that Radiohead book, off Ross and I don't think I'll ever get round to finishing it.

Not according to Cloud it seems. Perhaps he should have given the negative reputation to the author.

No!!!!!

I gave up after 7 chapters, it's such tedious rubbish and quite easily the worst book I've ever read, and that includes reading some utter rubbish by Kazuo Ishiguro.

Words cannot express my hatred for The Dice Man :/

[Pierre Von Mondragon]

It is well overrated, and a bit dodgy besides.

I thought The Dice Man was great when I first read it a few years ago.

I was wrong.
