The Oracles Queen is now out just got around to picking up a copy yesterday will post my thoughts on it towards this weekend.:D

The Bone Dolls Twin is one of the few books I've really enjoyed in this past year as well as it's follow up Hidden Warrior as yet I have not tracked down any of her previous series but that's on my list if I ever see them in a book store. I can't wait until the end of this month when the third...

I would never read Brooks horrible just horrible hmm what about my forum name?:p I think the Word and Void trilogy are his best books to date it's too bad he felt the need to tie them into the Shannara universe that just brings down their value imho. I think Brooks has evolved a bit while I...

A Talent For War by Jack McDevitt falls into this category one of the few sci-fi books I enjoyed. But do not waste time picking up a copy of Polaris a new book with the same characters but it seemed like a complete rehash of the original with the lead role switched.

I finally got around to reading this as well and enjoyed it overall but found many of the same sore points others did here. It seemed quite strange how far school and characters were shoved in the back here 60% of the book seemed to be Harry thinking about Malfoy or trying to convince the others...

The Word & the Void Trilogy by Terry Brooks is definitely good vs. evil consisting of. Running with the Demon A Knight of the Word Angel Fire East His Dark Materials Trilogy by Phillip Pullman could easily be another that might interest you. The Golden Compass The Subtle Knife The Amber...

I enjoyed the two movies based on his books but made the mistake of picking up the book Hide & Seek to see if I would enjoy the style of writing. It turned out to be a mistake I did finish the book but it mainly reminded me of the horror books I read when I was a teenager I'm not saying it was...

That gives me a creepy hair raising feeling like someone just walked over my grave in the future to think someone liked Eddings Belgarion character over Sparhawk, sigh. Isn't it a beautiful thing to disagree :D I much prefer the aging warrior to the dish washing king though. I still have my...

I'm currently reading the Warlock trilogy by Andre Norton I am on the final book now which has been quite different form the first two but still very enjoyable.

I thought the Thief of Always was great and have been a big fan of the Faded Sun trilogy for many years I always try to force it and Rusalka into other peoples reading lists.

To be honest I have only read one book by Duncan and it has always held a spot on my shelf since it was "The Hunters' Haunt" a story of Omar the trader of tales. What can I say I've always had a thing for vagabond storytellers. :D

I'll have to track that one down if it comes anywhere close to the way Three Hearts & Three Lions was written it will be a must read for me.

Well I was going to continue lurking but your avatar always gets a giggle out of me, Litany reminds me of one of those horrid romance book covers from the 50's and 60's. The last fantasy read I had was "Three Hearts and Three Lions" by Poul Anderson this was the first fantasy book I'd read by...

If I'm not mistaken you could be thinking of one of my favorite books by "P.C. Hodgell" the title would be "God Stalk" a good read if anyone else is interested. :D

This is actually a very good book with a nice motley cast of characters the lead of course being Severian of the Torturers Guild. The second book The Claw of the Conciliator may be the faster paced of the two but I found the first to be more engrossing then any of the others in the five part...

Hey, I resent that I enjoyed Rawn's two Dragon Prince trilogies and in no way found them to be girly books. But in case they are then I state that apparently I like girly books, so there. :p

I found a copy of this a couple years back it was a very good story I was riveted from begining to end only setting it down for pesky work. :) I don't think there's a single book I've read that's come close to the style it was written in and it had a truly original plot instead of just another...

While there was Mordred the other illegitimate child at least the only one I've heard of was Loholt and I don't really remember if he is mentioned in White's books or not. Either way it's debateable whether he existed at all or if he was even a son of Arthur there was speculation that he could...

I am not a huge Eddings fan but you can't criticize all his books High Hunt and the Losers were quite decent but I do have to agree with the statements on repetition in the later books/series. To stomach the later books just remember to read the first set of books and skip the second set since...

I just finished the first two books of this trilogy last night and have to admit I'm on the edge of my seat waiting for the third book to be released and praying that it is written as well as the first two. The first book Across The Nightingale Floor introduces you to the main characters Takeo...
