I just finished "ACDC Maximum Rock & Roll Deluxe Edition".
It was awesome.
Now for something different Ive started Star Trek Academy Collision Course by William Shatner.
Similarly to the recent movie it's about a young Kirk and Spock but is a different story to the movie, I think he wrote it before or at the same time the movie was written.

I read that one quite a while back Wedgie, was a good read. He's a surprisingly good author ol' Shatner.

I'm a big fan of Shatner's in most aspects, his version of Common People with Pulp was great.
A very witty and humerous man but his sense of humour goes flying over most peoples head.
I read his 2 books on the Star Treks Tv days and it's Movie years and enjoyed them, I should read more of his fiction.

Just finished Ian Rankin's "Exit Music" - the final book in the Inspector Rebus series.

Having had a few days to let it sink in I think it is nothing short of brilliant; possibly even the best in the series, not that I've read them all yet. The story is full of ironies, and the story ends on a particularly ironic note. Things are not always as they seem!

Brilliant film. The ending, despite being somewhat predictable, was superb cinema.

That's obviously the kids edition.

The adult edition would've contained the phrase "eats roots and leaves" somewhere.

First half really enjoyed...the second not so much (seemed to just gloss over the "fall")
