I'm reading Summer Knight, a book in the Dresden files book series.It narrates the story of Harry Dresden,chicago's only professional wizard who works as a detective.In this book he deals with the Summer and Winter Courts of the fey.Apparently they are about to go to war.An event which was triggered by the death of the Summer Knight.Queen Mab of the Winter Court hires Harry to find out the true killer.
Just finished re-reading the Mars novels and the tarzan novels by Edgar Rice Burroughs .There are 11 novels in the mars series beginning with 'a princess of mars'.Captain John Carter of the Confederate Army is whisked to Mars and discovers a dying world of dry ocean beds where giant four-armed barbarians rule, of crumbling cities home to an advanced but decaying civilization, a world of strange beasts and savage combat, a world where love, honor and loyalty become the stuff of adventure. The later books are about his son Carthoris,daughter Tara etc.John carter is a recurring character in all these books as martians live for 1000 years.
The best among the Tarzan novels is 'Son of Tarzen.' Jack,the son of Tarzan shared his father's love for apes.He was only trying to help an ape escape to Africa from his cruel trainer.However he got involved in a murder and couldn't return home.He chose to live in the jungle with the apes.Its a fascinating book.The social system among the intelligent giant apes,Korak's relationship with Miriam are all interesting stuff.Its a great coming of age book.

Hi, mia, my name is Hank. The last book I read was "The Langston Hughes Reader." Langston Hughes is a little read Black writer from the first half of the Twentieth Century.
His book contains his prose, poetry and plays. It offers a perspective from the Black writer that is refreshing.

"Desolation Island" by Patrick O'Brian, about life in the Royal Navy in the early 1800s. Part of a long set of historical novels called the Aubrey/Maturin series after the main characters. The film "Master and Commander" was based on them.
