I see no one has posted here, I just wondered if anyone has been reading
anything good lately.

I just finished the AD&D Forgotten Realms Avatar Trilogy (2nd time), AWESOME set. Now I'm going to read Prince of Line and Crucible (Never read those).

Erm, well the reason why I haven't been posting here recently (the user formerly known as "Dwarf" due to a certain vagueness on the login form) is because I've been re reading loads of my favourite Tolkien, Stephen Lawhead, David Gemmel books and an old trilogy called The True Game by Teri.S.Shepper again.

I finished The Silent Blade by Salvatore in the Dark Elf series, it was pretty good, there are two more I need to read but I was too lazy to find them, now I am reading Lord of the Rings - which is very good.

Hi Ziroc, well any good books, well if you have a thing for vampires check out a book called "Sunglasses after dark" it´s a set of four books in one, pretty ok, it´s a female comic writers first book. Pretty OK.

Robin Hob?? Assasins quest books are really good.

Right now I´m into some Terry Pratchett books and also alot of H.P Lovecraft and also the Sword of truth serie.. Puh, and I still have some Feist and Jordan books left to read.. Damn, I need a vacation!

I have been reading the saga of Recluce. I thought it was pretty good, anyone else read it. I had a problem though with book 1, it is written in first person, it's a good thing I bought books 1-4 or probably wouldn't have finished the series.

How about the Sword of truth series, or the Wheel of time.

Pandora by Anne Rice. Not too long, but one of the coolest, most evocative and romantic books I have ever read. I fell totally in love with Pandora after reading it.

Am reading The Witching Hour by Anne Rice for about the 100th time! A really good book IMHO - really good characterisation - I really empathise with her characters.

I never just read one thing at a time, and have also just started (on a more serious note) No Logo by Naomi Klein. But that would be off-topic I guess!!!

Don't be silly you can talk about any book here. Have you read the Mayfair Trilogy? I've got Taltos, but I don't want to read it till I've read The Witching Hour and Lasher. Strongly recommend Pandora.
