Just finished Lance Armstrong's autobiography 'It's not about the bike' that deals with his early career and fight aginst testicular cancer that had raged throughout his body. A very emotional read and telling of the man's unbeliveable ability to fight adversity. Hard to say how long it has been since I have read something that impacts so much. Amazing stuff - if you see it on the bookshelf it's worth the expenditure. It of course helps if you like cycling and have an interest in 'Le Tour' but there so much more besides that I reckon anyone would find this book compulsive reading.

Finished Seventh Son and started Red Prophet both books by Orson Scott Card in the Alvin Maker series. They are fantasy novels about an alternate universe set in the early 1800s America.
