Not really a book, but it has nice information for one day each year....the Intellectual Devotional....I have both the first one and the version called 'American History' You can learn lots of interesting facts in there!

The last book I finished was Perelandra by C.S. Lewis and right now I'm in the middle of That Hideous Strength. Unfortunetely with work and school I haven't had very much time for recreational reading, which sucks.
Let's hear it for the Space Trilogy. lol

The movie was outstanding. Is the book based on the movie, or vice versa?

Well, since the last time I posted in this thread, I finished nearly all the other books James Rollins has written (as James Rollings...as James Clemens, he writes fantasy books), which include Amazonia, Ice Hunt, Sandstorm, and Black Order. As of 5 hours, I just bought his most recent book, The Judas Strain, and will begin reading it right now...even though it is a little after 2 in the morning out here on the West Coast. And my own book is progressing pretty well, as far as creating the skeleton and laying the foundation goes. Once I finish this very rough draft, I'll proceed onto further editing, refining, and polishing, then go from there.

The movie was actually based on the book written by Bobby. "On Tuesday morning, October 16th, 1962, shortly after nine o' clock President Kennedy called and asked me to come to the White House. He said only that we were facing great trouble..."

I'm going to have to take a look at that - sounds like it'd be a fantastic book!
