No no no. "Oh HELL yes".
Someone gave you the entire collection? Individuals, or the omnibuses? Including White Night?
... so much envy. :O
Enjoy 'em.

I feel stupid that I have never heard of those books. But now it looks like I will have to hunt them down immediately.

Good call reading that book. It had some great Zombie survival stories and good description of weapons. I loved reading it.
I need to chose better times to skim through it though. I had done a quick scan for something fun and then gone out walking around my grandmother's neighborhood with a friend at 10 in the evening... She lives miles from the nearest town and there is a multitude of woods around her house. It was creepy.

And now, once I get myself to a book store, I shall be reading Oliver Sacks's 'The Man Who Mistook His Wife for a Hat'.

They're turning the Dresdan Files into an RPG game, and if Eric Burns of Websnark fame is correct, it'll be better than the series itself.

Define RPG.
Tabletop? CRPG? MMO?
If tabletop, is it d20 (ARGH NO), or is it some sort of custom setting?
(speaking of Dresden Files, and RPGs, tell me the Knights of the Cross aren't the best take on the 'Paladin' character you've ever seen.

It will be a table-top, but not d20. It will be a RPG system onto itself, written by Mr. Chad Underkoffer. If you liked
Dead Inside and
Zorceror of Zo, then you'll love the Drisen RPG. But I suppose I should let
Mr. Burns tell you the story himself.
If nothing else, Mr. Underkoffer is damn though. If it's in the series, it'll probably be in the book.

Doesn't that make you die a little inside? It depresses the hell out of me.
I was eight when it was originally thought of, so no.
Don't care, I enjoy a decent story.
