Fellowship of the Rings

Get it from Amazon.com!

Another book on CD, this time I was sorely disappointed.

Digital Fortress was great, I really enjoyed the book and it's delivery. This time rather than reading me the book, they acted it out. It was at times excellent, but at many others it was lame or difficult to hear. Plus it was very abridged.

Luckily, Christina is buying me the movies for Christmas.

Buy it!

Okay, so technically I didn't read the whole book. I read about one-third of it back in March and then I listened to the entire thing this week on CD while driving home for Thanksgiving. I downloaded the entire audiobook off BitTorrent.

A really good book, but no where as good as Angels & Demons or of course The DaVinci Code. A good thriller who's ending is a little drawn out and frustrating.

ESPN the Magazine

"The Magazine" is actually really good, especially considering I get it for free with my ESPN Insider subscription. I think ESPN went the right route when they decided to focus on the future instead of writing on what had already happened. For a sports magazine it's really the only thing you can do and stay useful. I get my sports news the instant it happens via TV or the Internet, I don't need a magazine telling me the story again a week after it happened. Good articles and photography (although the SI photos were always spectacular, and not just in the swimsuit issue.)

Not the best magazine in the world, but certainly readable. The articles are informative and entertaining, but they are also often repetitive, outdated, and biased.

I've only been reading the magazine a couple of months and already they've repeated some of the same topics several times. They also managed to announce the new Apple Cinema Displays about two and a half months after everyone else did.

Excellent magazine that I've been reading for about a year now. Very good articles as well as news and reviews. I almost always read it cover to cover.
