'The Colony' by Grace Karskens - superb history of the founding of Sydney, and the interactions between the Europeans and Aboriginal Australians.

I absolutely love book threads. Always nice to see what friends like mackenzie and scowy are reading. De niro, the Mr Nice film is out soon but doesn't look great. Top book though. I'm mentioned by name in the bluemoon book. The clue is 'women's underwear'. Currently reading Firmin by Sam Savage about a rat who lives in a bookshop and learns to read. Sounds odd but pretty good so far

Second book of the Millennium trilogy.
I don't know what it is about these books, but one thing for sure is they are very hard to put down.
Me too! Really good read and very well written. Got the third one lined up for those parts of the weekend where I'm not at the match/watching footie on telly.

I have the third on standby too! ;-)
Not sure whether to read a Colin Bateman book inbetween the two though. He is a seriously funny man...."The Mystery Man" has one of the most unlikeliest hero's ever. And anyone who loves very dry, dark humour and "odd" characters should read it imho.<br /><br />-- Wed Apr 28, 2010 9:04 pm --<br /><br />

Was discussing them with a friend today. He reckons it is the pace of the story that is the key.
