Re: What readest thou?
I read some time ago (don't know if this is the place for it) a book series called, "The Wakefield Dynasty" which was the stories of a noble family the story starting at the time of Henry VIII and ending at the time of John Wesley with famous Christian character's interacting with the family at diffrent moments. It was a great read except by the third book you could kind of predict where it was going and I didn't like the fifth book which was the final one.

Re: What readest thou?
@Tooky: Ahhhhh...okay. Thanks!
@Ariel: The only Shakespeare tragedy I've read and watched the whole way through is Hamlet, and that one is...definitely depressing.
@Knight of Narnia: I think I've heard of that series before! Never read it, though...

If somebody has an idea for a Narnia comic that they weren't planning on making themselves, I <------ This offer still

Re: What readest thou?
I totally agree with Tooky's summary of the Children of Hurin. Where is the "Like" button?

Re: What readest thou?
Finished Case for Christ last night! I was enjoying part three in particular.
And I ordered in Seeking Allah, Finding Jesus from the library, so that'll be next on my list.

@Knight: I'm definitely looking forward to it; thanks for your vote in favour!
Edit: So I felt like reading last night, and read the entirety of God's Smuggler, which I'd only read once and back in school. I remembered liking it a good deal and I liked it just as much (actually, more) this time. (Warning for some mentioning of T-rated things, though.)

Re: What readest thou?
Just finished Seeking Allah, Finding Jesus. Oh. My. Word. I'm in love. For one, it's super-easy to read and to relate to the people within the pages. For another (and much more important) thing, the story is just so powerful. And the ending section, wow. I don't throw around this word, but it was awesome. I even teared up for the beauty of it.
Knight said it is "a great book". It is. But I want to add that I 100% recommend it. (Warning for a couple T-rated mentionings regarding Muhammad.) Not only is it a powerful autobiography of a man truly seeking after God and finding Him, but it also sheds light on at least parts of Islam and Muslims and what such a journey means for them.

Re: What readest thou?
Oh, wow. I may want to see if I can get a copy of that to read, then.
In other news, I just finished the chapter about Túrin and Nienor and THERE'S A WHOLE BOOK ABOUT THIS?? Tolkien...what it wrong with you?????? Wow.........I mean, the only part about it that was even the slightest bit not-depressing was how on pretty much every other page Túrin would change his name again. It's like it was with Aragorn or Gandalf.
