I was thinking of ordering Something Wicked This Way Comes. Looks real good.
Any thoughts or suggestions?

The Illustrated Man looks good too.

Bradbury is my favorite writer. Many of his novels are actually related short stories (such is the case with The Illustrated Man, The Martian Chronicles, Dandelion Wine etc). My all time favorite is Dandelion Wine, I think he really found his voice in that one. There's a scene in the beginning where the main character compares winds moving through the trees to great whales swimming by... just awesome imagery. of course, you can't go wrong with "Something Wicked..." either.

Alright, can I pick an author to read that isn't one of your favorites. You're stalking me aren't you?

Why do I think that might not be a good idea? I'm going to google him and see if I should smack you silly.

I think I'm going to go with 'Something Wicked'. I haven't even started Ghost Story yet.
