Twilight… where to start? Well i went to see the movie when it was released and I really enjoyed it – this got me interested in reading the books.

Happily we found the first book in a charity shop purely by chance, and when I started reading it, I couldn’t put it down. James could see me getting sucked into the story more and more, so he bought the next two books on Amazon – the fourth isn’t in paperback yet. I got so involved with the story that I read the first book within 4 days… and I’m not usually a fast reader. All the books took me under a week to read, except the last book Breaking Dawn (which we also picked up in the same charity shop, but in hardback), which is my least favourite of the series.

Right I’m on to books the last thing i finished was Marvel 1602 by Neil Gaiman and winner of the quill award 2005.

Cover art for Marvel 1602

The back says:

In marvel 1602, award-winning writer Neil Gaiman presents a unique vision of the marvel universe set four hundred years in the past. Classic marvel icons such as the X-Men, Spider-Man, the Fantastic Four and Daredevil appear in this intriguing world of 17th century science ans sourcery.

Well that’s all i had to read before i was hooked and it didn’t let me down – I really liked it and if you’re a fan of any of the heroes that appear here you will be fascinated to find out how Gaiman placed then four hundred years previous.

I recommend this to anyone and everyone.
