I've been poor lately and having to re-read books to hold myself over. This is one of my favorite series and the first 3 books are great. It's one of those "alt-history" series that basically asks the question; What if we lost the last 500 years of tech? Gunpowder, electricity, steam engines, and most modern technologies disappear in a instant and the survivors of a changed world have to live in the "old way".

I have really enjoyed this series and am now waiting for the new one to come out in paperback (I don't like hardcovers much). I recently read the first nantucket series he wrote about what happened to nantucket. I read the change novels never realizing that it was an offshoot of this series. Both were very good reads.

I am now taking a break from the alt history, I listened to "The Lost Symbol" on CD the first book I have tried that with and enjoyed it and am now reading Dean Koontz "Life Expectincy" (sp)

Next up I think will be Eric Flints "1632"
