What I've been reading

"The God Delusion" by Richard Dawkins. I listened to this as a book on CD, read by the author and his wife, and they do a wonderful job. I did keep thinking of Dawkins voice as the voice of the book from "Hitchhiker's Guide" for some reason, perhaps because Dawkins was friendly with Douglas Adams and even dedicated the book to him.
and
"Pattermaster" by Octavia Butler. She's just such a great writer. She really draws you in quick and makes you care. I'm continuing on my quest to read all her books.
