What are you reading?
I've been reading a lot more lately. I've recently finished Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy series, the Subtle Knife, and 1984.
I've finished Olympos and Imajica by Clive Barker. I'm starting to read Paul of Dune. What else should I read?
It was really well written and I was satisfied with the ending. No loose ends.
I like how Clive made Hapexamendios. It was creative and tied in concepts of the reconciliation.
He has awesome characters. Most of them are complex and dynamic, which is far from the norm in writing.
I totally agree. That's my favorite book. Most of his other stuff is really good too. Everville, The Great and Secret Show, Weaveworld, Mr. B. Gone, all three of the Books of Blood.
I don't read too much of your sci-fi stuff but if you want fantasy I can oblige. The Sword of Truth series by Terry Goodkind is very good. There is also a series by Brent Weeks call the Night Angel trilogy that is also amazing.
Recently I started the Wheel of Time series by Robert Jordan. Probably the best series I've read in a long time. I've read reviews that compare it to The Lord of Rings books in a positive light which is pretty impressive.
I'm done with The Dragon Reborn. It's still good, but I'd be a billionaire if I had a penny for every time Robert Jordan had a character give a start.
Good call on Wheel of Time. I just finished the first book and I already think it's much better than LotR.
I've read reviews that compare it to The Lord of Rings books in a positive light which is pretty impressive.
I'd like more comparisons to LotR in a negative light. :P
I'll start Wheel of Time too.
