I've bought:...

...one of those awful mobile phone thingies...

After about 3 years of not having one. They've changed a lot.

And also bought Neverwhere by Neil Gaiman and The Scar by China Mieville.

Neverwhere has been frothed about on every single web board I've ever been a member of. It better be good, or I'll have to take revenge... on the entire internet!

It really does rock (in a camp bbc way, much like old Doctor Who in that you can see some shonky effects but they have enough charm and imagination that you accept it).

The book... you know those papery things, about the size of a DVD case, but thicker, and with no discs inside?

The Scar (in my opinion) is the best of the trilogy.

Just starting it, I've read Iron Council and Perdido Street Station, enjoyed them both, with Perdido Street Station edging out Iron Council.

I was strangely disappointed, it takes ages to go anywhere, and the payoffs seem a little poor.
