Arabesque

Maybe even greater :) It was an amazing show. Great musical talent and highly entertaining. The kinetic energy from that show ran through me all the way home and made it hard to go to sleep. I will go see them again next time they come to town. If you get the chance go see them.

I've only got limited reading time and oft times the story in a 1000 page book can become convoluted and hard to follow. It's like the author is more concerned with the number of pages and not the story. Of course, this is not true of all large books, but it takes skill to write an epic story. The Red Badge of Courage is such a short novel and yet says so much.

I listen to a lot of audio books and have really gotten hooked on the #1 Ladies Detective Agency. I love the way Lisette Lecat reads these books. I also love the Honor Harrington books and The Vatta Wars (which I've read and listened to on audio). Another good audio I've heard recently is Luka and the Fire of Life. Read the Game of Thrones and really liked it, but lost interest after that book. Loved The Green Rider and the 2nd book in the series. After that one the books in the series just kept getting longer and longer. Do authors get paid by the word or something?
