About 70ish pages in now. The first section is all stories about how people got into death metal and the early years of playing shows and the music scenes they grew up in :interessant:

Got it from a sexy leopard elevator I was kind of seeing some years back. I felt really bad about never managing to get it back to her, and I'm only now reading it. Pretty cool but kind of repetitious.

I read a previous attempt to rewrite the Eddas into a regular story format by Kevin Crossley-Holland and really liked it. When I heard Gaiman was doing the same, and I am a big fan of his, I absolutely had to get me some of them pages in my hands.

My mum gave me 'Dokter aan de wisselmeren', written by a doctor in Papua new guinea early 50's. It describes Papua daily life, very interesting :idea: It has a touch of colonialism, things have changes so fast. My daddy visited these lands while he was in the navy, he didn't talk much about these days so now I have a picture :idea:
