What I thought was cool was

is Out Of The Silent Planet is where the band Silent Planet got their name

and Perelandra was the opening song on Symphony In Peril's The Whore' Trophy album

"Out of the Silent Planet" is also the name of King's X first album. And it's a very good album.

Since I couldn't find the other book threads

I thought I'd resurrect this one

Currently part way through

Huckleberry Finn
one of my favorite reads ever!

I finished The Martian about 6-8 weeks ago.

Is the book similar to the movie?

The movie was great, but does the book have more detail? Or does the movie follow the book exactly?

Book has incredible detail. Haven't rented the movie yet, but will soon.

The book contains quite a bit more detail than the movie.  But both were very good IMO.

"Illusion" by Frank E. Peretti.
Excellent book.

Celebration of Discipline: The Path to Spiritual Growth by Richard J. Foster
This is real good stuff.

Contents Under Pressure: 30 years of Rush at Home and Away by Martin Popoff. It's a biography of Rush detailing the process behind every album up to and including Rush in Rio. Only a casual fan of Rush, but i figured this might be an interesting read.

Currently reading Corrie Ten Boom's books. I just finished 'In my father's place' and now i've just started 'The hiding place'

Purchased, but have not read yet.
