Dan Simmons

So I just started reading Carrion Comfort by Dan Simmons.  I love me some Dan Simmons!  The first book of his that I ever read was The Terror.  It was the perfect book for me, historical fiction meets horror.  A wonderful mix of James Michener and Stephen King - two of my favorite authors.  I have also read Summer of Night, Black Hills and Drood by Mr. Simmons.  Two very different books but each wonderful in it's own way.  I will admit that it took me a while to get through Drood.  Some parts were a little slow.  I'm was glad that I kept going though, a very enjoyable book overall.  Summer of Night is more horror along the lines of S.K.  Summer, kids, scary building, evil grown-ups.  A great page-turner that I read very quickly.
