My fix of books and PC games just arrived...

Books
The Merlin Conspiracy - DWJ (her new hardback, a sequel to Deep Secret)
Seaward - Susan Cooper (author of The Dark is Rising)
King of Shadows - ditto

Games
Broken Sword - having played the second one, I wanted this (by the makers of Beneath a Steel Sky)
The Longest Journey
Gabriel Knight 3
Discworld Noir

Yep - the books are all for children and the games are all the ancient, five quid, adventure things. I'm very, very happy.

yay!

sounds like a packet of fun. i read more young adult books nowadays than grown-up books. grown-up books are boring and postmodern and crap like that. YA books have stories in them.

The Longest Journey is great -- have you never played it?

Ooo! Susan Cooper!

I loved her 'Dark is Rising' series. Is 'Seaward' a new book, a new series?
