There's a lot going on here.

Since I feel like being extra spammy today ...
Triple Whoo-Hoo!
Book #98 - The Gunslinger Born by Stephen King, etc - This is the first 7 issues of the Gunslinger Born comic series all rolled up in a gorgeous hardcover book with pretty , pretty pictures which I want to make banners and icons out of. Basically, this takes the chronological events of the entire Dark Tower series and puts them to pretty pictures. So, we start with when Roland defeated Cort and won his first set of guns and ended with his beloved Susan burning to death while declaring her love for him. In other words, it's a much shorter and more focused version of Wizard and Glass. Yeah, that book? It took me forever to get through. I've read it twice and ... wow. It's long and drawn out. I do remember it as being better the second time around, but still ... long.

I digress. Book=good.

Yeah. Freshwater crabs. What's the big deal? (hee!) People spend good money on crabs. Geez!

The book is very, very good. It's so much faster than Wizard and Glass. I read it in a few hours instead of a couple of weeks. And that's with looking at all the pretty pictures.
