Right. Then I am decided that I will use my Borders gift card to get another Christopher Moore novel because hello, teh funneh! And Son of the Shadows. If it ever stops raining and I want to leave the house, that is.

Have you read Diana Wynne Jones' Fire and Hemlock? It's one of my very favorites; a lovely retelling of Tam Lin. It's just now back in print and totally worth a read.

Ohh, I haven't! Although I've read a lot of her stuff, but that one I'd never seen in print. I must look for it!

And, god, yes Moore - I want to get Fluke next, although I still have the biggest soft spot ever for Bloodsucking Fiends, because it killed me dead.

Lamb is the only Moore I've read; I'm going to pick up Bloodsucking Fiends with the gift card. Am mucho looking forward to it.

Lamb is more...sophisticated, you can tell Bloodthirsty Fiends is older but it's...god, it's hysterical.

Also Practical Demonkeeping, the first of his books - you remember the demon Catch in Lamb? The one that was released? That entire scene is a reference to Practical Demonkeeping and the sequel.
