well, thanks for the replies guys, but...........well, with the greatest respect......

The Blind King of Bohemia - I want to know which of the 2 books I have should I read, not a different recommendation

Samurai-ninja_fusion_of_doom - I already have the books, so I'm past the point of reading reviews before purchasing

The_Emperor - that's nice, but I want to know which of the 2 I have should I read next

maybe I didn't make myself clear. Both books are sitting on my shelf and one of them will be next for me to read - but I just can't decide, so I'm doing a straw poll where you, the guild, get to decide. There need not be a reason, I will simply abide by the will of the majority.
