Happy National Day, Malaysians

Hari Merdeka (Independence Day) is a national day of Malaysia commemorating the independence of the Federation of Malaya from British colonial rule in 1957, celebrated on 31 August each year. This should not be confused with Hari Malaysia (Malaysia Day) when Malaysia was formed on 16 September 1963 together by Federation of Malaya, North Borneo, Sarawak and Singapore....blah,blah,blah. (I'm not really a 'celebrate national day kind of person').

Hey guys, I'm still reading Conn Iggulden's Conqueror series. It is one of the best book I've ever read in my life. I've read Empire of Silver and The Conqueror which features on Genghis' grandsons, Mongke Khan, Hulegu, Arik Boke Khan and Kublai Khan and Ogedai's son, Guyuk Khan who was only Khan for a year. These are the books in this series:

You guys can visit http://www.conniggulden.com/ for more information on this series. I've also read The Immortal Iron Fist by excellent writers, Ed Brubaker and Matt Fraction and amazing artist, David Aja. Its mind-exploding once you've finished reading the first three books (according to my father, vol. 1-3 is the best among the 5 vol.).

I guess that's all for now. :D

When Gods Walk the Earth!!!

Its been three months since my last post (sorry about that) : P. For the past few months, I'm either studying for exam or studying about extraterrestrials. As for now, I'm sharing a short post while I'm reading Empire of Silver by Conn Iggulden (originally from China's history). After the death of The Great Khan (Genghis Khan), his son Ogedai  takes over his father's throne.   



I've finished reading The Eternals by Neil Gaiman and amazing artist, John Romita Jr. The writing is brilliant as well as the art which is EPIC. It tells us a story about the past where the Celestials (ancient space Gods) came to Earth which leads to the creation of the Eternals.
