I am at fever pitch :) I've re-read all 5 books this last week to get me ready for tonight..... 12.01 cannot come quick enough *anticipating a very late night* Eight and a half hours to go!

My two worst were when Angel was cancelled, and then Firefly. I'm a Whedon fan, what can I say?

Stormspirit - I voted and have commented.

The Manda bit comes from my name Amanda - it was shortened by someone I used to be very fond of, so that stuck. When I was choosing a nick for a warhammer forum, I asked the same person what I should call myself and he stuck a Mage on the front. Hence Magemanda

I don't like the thought that some people will not pick up Eddings at all based on what a few people they don't know have said on an internet forum. It smacks of not being able to read a book yourself and make up your own opinion.

Actually, I don't think it's an age thing, because I'm 25 and still love Eddings. I find it perfect escapism. The writing isn't perfect; he doesn't break the mould of fantasy; no one can ever accuse him of producing classics of the genre. But I find his characters entertaining. I like the...

Yay!!!! So excited! Chaos here for the next six years.......

I've had a couple of long distance relationships. As a fairly paranoid and untrusting person, it was my attitude that eventually caused the death of them. If you're gonna have them, you have to trust, definitely.

I think separately the forums would be ghost-town-like. As it is, it can be quite busy at times.

Unfortunately, Mr Sell Sword, I have limited access to US books (do not want to pay HUUUGE shipping bills!) I am currently wanting: Dead as a Doornail - Charlaine Harris Undead and Unappreciated - Mary Janice Davidson And now busily adding Every Which Way But Dead to that list :)

And I've been here nigh on a year now and have even less than you CM!

My July reading will consist of Kim Harrison's two books: Dead Witch Walking and The Good, The Bad and The Undead. I am then going to embark on a re-read of Janny Wurts' magnus opus starting with the Curse of the Mistwraith since I have the latest two books (Peril's Gate and Traitor's Knot, I...

I advise against reading any Moorcock, but that's because I can't stand his writing. Boring as sin.....

Hi, time for me to be brave again. I have started this particular story twice now, to see how it felt from 1st and 3rd person perspective. If anyone has any comments about the beginnings themselves - first impressions, grammar chat etc, I'd love to hear them. I'd also like to get a preference as...

Now that's neat :) . Always nice to see an established author interacting with the fans.... Over on Kelley Armstrong's site, they have an established monthly bookclub and they always try to get the author to attend in order to answer questions and receive feedback. Seems to have worked in...

I've read literally from dawn til dusk. I can read for hours with no interruptions or desire to do anything else. Of course, I don't do it very often cos of the other demands on my time! As a conservative guess, I'd say the longest I've read is about 13 hours (with a break for food).

Oh, I know and love this series..... You're talking about the Alanna series by Tamora Pierce. She has written several quartets now, but the first quartet is the one you're interested in. It's made up of: Alanna:the First Adventure In the Hand of the Goddess The Woman who Rides like a Man...

You seem to be very emotional about this Carlos, and seem to see people who marry as deluded fools. Now you are completely entitled to your opinion, but I think it would be slightly nicer if you toned down the derogatory element of your post. The thing about love and marriage is it is completely...

I don't particularly want to buy a house outright even! Right now I'm desperate enough that just to be given the deposit money to put down would be a supreme gift. Saving is hard :(

Just picking up something that Kook mentioned earlier regarding blushing brides... I would rather have a small and intimate wedding than a huge sprawling bridezilla affair. For me, the wedding is not an end in itself, it's a means to an end. I would rather spend a whole heap of money on a...
