Richard Newcomb - words can't even begin to describe how terrible he is. I know a lot of you will not imagine how bad when you read this , but it scares and disgusts me that he actually got published. Robert Jorden - Didn't really like the first books, then they got worse... David Eddings...

I loved Altered Carbon, the problem with Broken Angels wasn't that it was inferior, just different. I way prefered the detective type feel.

Try The Scar SillyWabbit, it's much better. One of my favs of all time and I though pretty much the same way about you concerning Perdido Street Station.

Arthur Clake's Space Odessy series is essential. Also Revelation Space and its sequels by Alastair Reynolds. Dune by Frank Herbert. The Lord of Light by Roger Zelazny.

Tales of the Malazan Book of the Fallen - Staven Erikson

hesitantly raises his hand to indicate he's part of the modern anti-tolkien crowd. Jack Williamson is pre-tolkien as well, an excellent novel. I'm loving every second of it.

careful there.;)

The Mists of Avalon is my personal Arthurian novel, simple a classic. Currently reading Darker Than You Think by Jack Willaimson, very enjoyable so far, with an absolutely perfect villainette.

Reading now: The Bone Doll's Twin

The books in Juliet Marillier's series are: Daughter of the Forest Son of the Shadows Child of the Prophecy

Finished Kushiel's Chosen - a massive improvement on the first book, this really is an excellent novel - 8/10 Across the Nightengale Floor - 5/10 Not really my cup of tea.

Tell me, did you wish there was more action in Robin Hobb's Farseer books? If yes, they could get a bit boring at times:The Empire Trilogy by Raymond Fiest and Janny Wurts If no: Juliet Marillier's the Sevenwaters Trilogy.

hmm... fan of the epics. You might want to try The Swan's War trilogy by Sean Russel. The first book is called the One Kingdom.

The Chronicles of Amber - Roger Zelazny There are to series both of five short books. I recommend that you don't read the second series as it really didn't seem to have a point. It seems to be leading up to an amazing third series, but nothing ever materialized.

Didn't like that very much. Seemed like he was milking off the succsess of Riftwar, very uninspired.

My fabourite VAmpire book: Fevre Dream by George RR Martin.

So far this month: The Portrait of Mrs Charuque, Jeffrey Ford - a fantastic read, excellently written 10/10 Veniss Underground, Jack Vandermeer - not everyone's cup of tea, I loved the style 9/10 To Green Angel Tower: Storm, Tad Williams - as long winded as ever but still an enjoyable...

Well currently on my bookshelf are fantasy and sci-fi books by 56 authors, you managed to pick, out of my three worst writers, two.

The Scar is much superior.

If you have read my comments on Edding, take exactly the same thing, only add sexism and needless violence to the list of flaws. Sorry, just my opinion.
