Since I'm way behind on everything

( Lucifer Rising )

Yay!

I found a version of the Stand published in 1980. The forward says there have been minor revisions, but I bet it's closer to the original than the one I have. I bought it and I'm reading it; I like where it starts, even though I also liked how the 1990 version began, too. I bet, however, the 1980 version will make more sense with the timeline, because by updating it, it got hella confusing.

I'm now reading a gazillion things at one time. And I haven't even started Losers yet, although I don't feel the need to read it before the movie, the way I did with Watchmen

Okay, off to read and eat.

:(

My calf hurts again. WTF?

(no subject)

One hundred fifty years ago, a vampire goddess, Kali, the first vampire, swore she would return to earth right before she was killed by Garrison Pike. Five days before her eighteenth birthday, Garrison kidnaps Kali Johnson, the prophesied reincarnation. If he kills her before she turns 18, he believes the vampire scourge will end. Or, at the very least, his brother, a victim of vampires, will finally be avenged. Kali isn't happy with this plan, especially since she doesn't believe his story of magic and vampires. The Followers, the legion of vampires who still live by her Code, and the Brethren, rogue vampires who have been trying to gain political power since Kali's death, don't want Garrison to succeed either. They will do anything to stop Kali from being killed… at least by a human.
