QUOTE (Faileas @ 29-Apr-2005, 06:44 PM) | Bookwise I have to say - I've done it again. Just catching up on the latest history of .... yes ye guessed it - Darkover. Have read Omnibus "To save a world" with "The World Wreckers" and "The Planet Savers" and a short story called "The Waterfall". And of course "Traitor 's sun" ... , brilliant , get it if ye like fantasy - such a wonderful plot with a thousand intrigues, treason and an interesting twist ...
At the moment on "The Fall of Neskaya" ... Ye see, i do my "homework" |
Faileas, I've read the whole Darkovian Series and I just loved it and still do! Have fun reading it! I just finished "Lady of Hay" by Barbara Erskine and enjoyed it immensly. I have already read "Echoes" and "Daughter of Phoenix" but "Lady of Hay" is my favorite so far. I'm now looking out for "Kigdom of Shadows" which is dealing with Robert the Bruce...also by Barbara Erskine.

Okies, stop knocking romance writers, you have one lurking in your midsts and several dozen of my best friends are romance writers.
Gabaldon is quick to say she is not a historical romance writer, but I notice she is not quick to turn away romance readers money!! Since 50-65% of all books are sold is romance, romance nearly floats the publishing industry. So no rotten tomatoes tossed at romance, please!!
I am a book reviewer as well as a writer so I carry a heavy load of reading.
To the person who had not read Stephan King asking where would be a good point to start in his works? Try Robert McCammon instead!! Seriously. Anyone who like King will love [B]Swan Song by McCammon. It is along the lines of King, but such a beautiful writing. Everyone I have recommended this book to always comes back and thanks me.
As for the romance readers lurking about, I would recommend Sue-Ellen Welfonder's A Wedding for a Knight, her newest tale. She is a marvellous writer and actually visits Scotland several times a year, so she is not one of these writers that writes about how dark the night is during the Summer in Scotland!! hehehe It's her best book yet.
For a simply fun tale, Kate Angell's Drive Me Crazy or Crazy for You are really great book just for a smile.
What I am currently finished is a Suspense novel by the Resident Genius of Romance, Anne Stuart, called Black Ice. The males in my family steal her books from me!
As for Lord of the Rings, I just finished with the 13 CD set BBC dramatization, starring Ian Holm. Rings fans HAVE to check this out. It's not the books being read, but a full radio dramatazition. Quite amazing!

I am reading a book that Alan Temperley has written called Harry and the... something Canna rembemer the name, and another book called Drachenreiter by Cornelia Funke. Books for teenagers/kids, I know, but they're really good...
