It's tough to go back to the book you were reading when something critical happened. I still haven't finished the novel and the anthology I was reading when the terrorists attacked NY and DC, nor the antholofy I was reading when my Grandfather died in 2000.

I have read Wicked, as well as Confessions of an Ugly Stepsister and Lost. I like his writing very much, although I'd put Lost at the bottom of the list, and I'm not sure how interested I am in Son of a Witch, the follow-up to Wicked. You'll have to let me know how you like Wicked!
