Hero of Nonfiction
Jul. 13th, 2009 02:13 pmThe Hero of Ages, by Brandon Sanderson
Very satisfying conclusion to an excellent epic fantasy trilogy. If you go in for this stuff, you should definitely give the first book a try. The imaginary-RPG bones still felt like they were showing a bit but not in a bad way, and it's just the *bones* of the story, not the characterization or plot.

The Readers' Advisory Guide to Nonfiction, by Neal Wyatt
The reason I decided to read this book is because I *LOVE* Neal Wyatt's taste in books as shown through her writing for Library Journal. So it comes as no suprise that I think this book is awesome!! I don't always agree with every theoretical opinion expressed but the recommendations, annotations, and overall approach is really really excellent. Highly recommended even if you just like reading a wide variety of non-fiction for fun - EXTREMELY highly recommended for reference professionals. (Though I confess I'm not quite ready to pay $53.00 to own my own copy - hurray for libraries!)
