Just finished "Night Watch" by Terry Pratchett. It's one of his later Discworld novels, and as such is part fantasy novel, part political satire, and dryly funny. In this one, Vimes and a madman get thrown back in time, and Vimes has to stop the bad guy before he destroys the past. It's pretty standard fantasy time travel fare, but Pratchett does a great job twisting it around to talk about fate, politics, and revolutions. It's brain candy, but it's tasty.
I am currently listening to a biography of Bohnhoffer on my commute, so I needed a break from Nazis and really deep theology!
I think you read faster than anybody! I am in the middle of The Hobbit and enjoying it!
