I picked up The Alienist and The Angel of Darkness after reading great things about them here. I'm only a few chapters into The Alienist, but so far so good.

Oooh... my first post in Book Talk... I hope I don't get too nervous...

I'm finishing up this book right now:



I'm a part-time Zombie nut, so I was eagerly awaiting this book after I devoured (ahem... ) The Zombie Survival Guide. I gotta say that I wasn't disappointed.
