The Praxis sounds great..I'm going to see if my local bookseller ( Frank) has some of these books you've mentioned.
The sequel to The Praxis is called The Sundering. There will be a third book in the series eventually, I believe. Greg Rucka has an independent comic called Queen and Country which I haven't read, but he has also written a few Batman comics and Elektra.
Well I finished Critical Space this morning and it was a really really good book.
Suddenly I'm seeing Greg Ruckas name every where

I just finished The Sundering this morning and it was really good. Unfortunately, now I have to wait until November when the third book will be released. I've got a few books out from the library to choose from. One of the books I took out is by Brad Meltzer and is called Zero Game. It is actually a mainstream book which is unusual for me, but Meltzer writes comic books occasionally, including the recent Identity Crisis series, and this book looked interesting.

I worked all day Saturday and have been pretty busy watching Babylon 5 and reading. Since school resumes tomorrow, I'll have to check a bunch of papers this afternoon.

I've been procrastinating all week and will probably watch tv while I check papers. I think school's okay. It can get kind of boring sometimes when schools not in session. That isn't to say that I don't enjoy vacations, mind you...

Hey I'm bored when I can't do my job. Even when I'm trying to be on vacation I'm still thinking like a painter , taking pictures. I guess I really don't have vacations, now that I think about it.
Azianboi , school is good stuff. You'll realise that later I think.

update - I watched Jack and Bobby and got the front half of my Algebra 2 test checked. Now I'll probably flip on B5 and check the back page. That would leave me with a Basic Geometry test to check while watching Carnivale at 9pm. That should be an easy test to check. I procrastinate on checking papers because I'd rather be doing other things, but I do tend to get them back to students in a much more timely fashion than many teachers. Often, I'll get them back a day or two after they take them, unless a lot of students were absent and still need to take the test.
update #2 - I watched a couple of episodes of B5 and then some of the Pistons game and all of my tests are now checked. I'll probably watch Carnivale at midnight or wait and watch it with HBO On Demand. I started reading Gregor: the Prophecy of Bane earlier tonight and will probably read that for the next hour or so. I imagine that I'll finish it tomorrow since it isn't that long of a book.
I'm almost finished with a book called Bloodstream by Tess Gerritsen. She writes medical horror books which fall more into horror than medicine.
She's from Maine, which makes me wonder what's in the water up there.
I have about 70 pages to go which I'm putting off because I have a tendency to blow off everything and just read.
I've realised that I much prefer fantasy to these types of books because they put me in a world which stimulates my imagination threefold. On my next book search I'm going to try to only do a fantasy sci fi run!

I've heard of Tess Gerritsen, but have never read any of her books. I finished reading Gregor and the Prophecy of Bane, the second book in a series about a boy who goes into the Underland, a world under New York City with human size (or bigger) rats, spider, bats, cockroaches and other animals. all of these species are intelligent and have their own kingdoms. There are also people down there who have a kingdom that has been around for hundreds of years.
I will probably start Moonrise by Terri Farley, the 14th book (I think) in her Phantom Stallion series. After that, I'll probably read Zero Game by Brad Meltzer and Schism by Catherine Asaro, part of her Skolian Empire series.
