Codemasters is going to release a series of books for DS owners to snuggle up to on a cold winter night. Sadly, the books aren't like Hotel Dusk. I'm also impressed with the books they are picking up. This may spark my wife's interest more for using my DS...wait is that a good thing? They are picking up the OLOGY books like Dragonology, Wizardology and Pirateology. Last year when visiting the King Tut Exhibit I bout her the Egyptology book. She also has the Dragonology calender. These are cool pieces of literature. The pages have hidden stuff to open. The Egyptology book has envelopes that open and contain invites to expeditions and letters from the expedition. It also contained little pieces for an ancient Egypt game the kids used to play back then. Its a very hands on book and not your straight here's your text here's your picture book.

I am partial to the whole book reading on a DS, PDA, computer, etc. I can't read a lot on a screen. I get bored with it. Or my eyes hurt. I end up printing a lot of tickets at work just to read them. I have better control over the content and can place items easier. Sorry trees, this urban style hippie still needs to cut you ass down so I can find an email delay between Philadelphia to San Jose to Thailand.

However, graphic novels. Bring them on. I never got into manga, but I may try to on a DS. Otherwise on paper it just looks like a coloring book waiting to be filled in.
