League of Extraordinary Gentlemen
As Magnet had been feeding me Wodehouse books he decided to also share the League of Extraordinary Gentlemen: Black Dossier because there is a short story in there called "What Ho - Gods of the Abyss" written in the style of Wodehouse featuring Jeeves and Bertie going up against Chtulu.
I struggled at first because it's a bit more graphic than the stuff I usually read. And by graphic I don't mean pictures... But I forced myself to continue and am glad I did because overall it was worth the read. I hadn't read any of the other stories, I only knew the movie and of course the real life people. (Okay well, Captain Nemo and Emma Peel aren't "real" so I guess I mean in their original states.)
I should write more but I don't feel good so this is just to log it before I forget. Actually, I feel awful. :(
Currently reading The Radioactive Boyscout (chapter 2) in the bedroom, Krauss's Hiding in the Mirror (chapter 3) in the living room, and The Elegant Universe (chapter 3) at work.
