Ooo yeah Thomas Covenent! A hard read, but worth it! I'm in the second book of the last of the series, one book to go

I am trying to find the last for in an ebook format. Having read the first two trilogies, I want to read the rest, though I liked the first trilogy more than the second.

 

[Tude]

See I liked the second better - the imagery is fantastic. The first two books of the first series nearly made me put them down with the despondence, etc (which is what the author was trying to hammer into the reader) - but loved when the gold ring took him there - awesome!!

I also read just about anything with dragons in it, hehe.

 

[Zeke42]

Yes, dragons are wonderful reads!

i was absolutely in love with the dragonlance novels when i was a kid. been reading a song of ice and fire for most of this year, but got kinda fed up with the 5th book and decided i'll just wait for the tv show.

right now i'm reading some pretty epic sci-fi, a series call 'the expanse' and so far it's pretty awesome. i'm on the second book 'caliban's war'. the first book is 'leviathan wakes'.

 

[Odin]

Oh something a bit more recent. Or that was published more recently.
"The Magicians" and the second book.. "Magician King"

Its like Hogwarts on crack. (someone said...)

(although I never read the harry potter books... just finally gave in and watched the movies one day)

hehe... stupid description aside... its kinda good :/ and even has "Narniaesqe" themes.

The First Law series by Joe Ambercrombie was awesome, or Ravens Shadow by Anthony Ryan.
