So, let's talk literature.

How many of you enjoy reading short stories?

I got a taste for them after reading the Skeleton Crew, a collection of horror short stories written by Stephen King.

Today I picked up Sandkings from George R R Martin, and I must say, it is terrific.

He just keeps throwing new creative and very original material at you while you munch through the pages. I seriously recommend everyone to either buy it or get your hands on it some other way, it's worth the trouble.

So, if anyone here has read any short stories they would like to share, do it here, I'm always looking for a new read.

I don't read much, but I don't mind the occasional short story. I don't actively seek them out though, I just read what I stumble across.

Isaac Asimov's got a few great ones.

This one's also pretty good, albeit annoying as f*ck to read <__>
