The Wind-Up Bird Chronicle: A Novel 285 reviews Haruki Murakami
Vintage, 1998
Quite the story, you just can't walk away from it.
+ Weird but engaging + Amazing novel by one of our greatest story tellers
I just finished reading The Wind Up Bird Chronicle, I stayed up too late several nights in a row because I couldn't put it down. Sometimes scary and haunting but altogether very beautifully written and very true to the human situation.

The Pale Horseman (The Saxon Chronicles Series #2) 58 reviews Bernard Cornwell
HarperCollins, 2007
The Pale Horseman
+ A Lusty Adventure Tale + Go Pagans!
Cornwell grabs the readers interest from the very beginning and doesn't let go until the last page! His books are so well written that the reader feels a pang of regret as he nears the end of each of his books.
