    Books you didn't finish

    I could not finish Wicked by Maguire. Soooooo boring!!! I prefer fantasy genre books and since reading Tales From Mos Eisley Cantina where you find out the stories of the other people in the bar in Star Wars: A New Hope, I thought that Maguire's books, where he tells the story of the other...

    Best series you read.

    I love to read books in series. I love that you get to know the characters even better, I love the inside jokes as you get further into the series and I love getting find out what happens to the characters after the story we first meet them in. I enjoy fantasy novels, and it seems like almost...

    Gil's all fright diner

    This book is hard to place, it's a comedy horror fantasy book. lol I really liked it. Fair warning to anyone who has not read it, it has a lot of cussing; but it is very funny. I was wondering if anyone else had read it and what your opinion was.

    Gregory Maguire: Wicked

    I despise politics and as a result found Wicked rather boring. I actually put the book down and stopped reading about half way through and that is a big deal for me. In fact, I can't think of one other book offhand that I ever put down before and stopped reading entirely. I liked confessions...

    Book Suggestions? (with some criteria)

    I personally am a huge Anne McCaffrey fan. Her Pern series (which is quite large) is partly about Dragons, so be forewarned, but they are not magical or mystical, they are engineered. Her Crystal Singer trilogy is free of mythical creatures, and is mostly humans though humans have traveled to...

    Searching for a detective story book

    Questions for you. Was the detective an adult or kid? Was there a sidekick or group the detective solved with? Do you remember if it was british, american, or other nationality characters?

    Help! I know one of you wonderful people will know it!

    Updated P.S. 5-10-06 I got to thinking and I don't know if i'm getting this confused with another story or not but... I think the daughter that most of the story is about was adopted by the healer. I think she was abandoned and that is how the healer wound up with a child.

    Who is your favourite author, and why?

    So many! At the very top of the list is Anne McCAffrey, also love Robert Aspirin's Myth series. Barbara Michael's mystery/suspense/supernatural books are great. I'm at work and can't think of others at the moment, but I have 2 full bookcases and then a stack by the bed and a couple stacks on...

    I agree, I think it is Chritopher Pike's "The Immortal". I remember I loved it when I read it, I was very into him for awhile.
