I often wonder why that happens that with longer series, the storytelling quality seems to dwindle off :confused:
I think authors should have a firm idea in their heads of what is going to happen during the series so has not to run out of ideas half way through.
So saying that, which...
Thanks so much for taking the time to post all these recommendations :) . I really appreciate it and will be looking into these series. Great to have so much to try.
I have read Terry Brooks The Word Series, and really enjoyed it. I think it's one of the better series that Brooks has...
I'm a bit old fashioned, I like to have a book to read. I think it's the whole experience of turning pages and the feel of paper ;)
I am always on the look out though for new authors, people that don't have a lot released at the moment and are getting a foot on the ladder.
When you book...
I find I get tired of vampire stories. I like Anita Blake because it has more than vampires in. But I'm not sure I want to read just vampire stories all the time.
It's a bit more involved I feel than being a pirate story. In fact I would say that is the least of it to be honest. There are some really unusual characters in this book and what an imagination this author has :)
The creatures are brilliant, so different I can't even think of a reference...
Thanks for posting your thoughts :)
Can I ask -
Was it a very detailed series?
Is there a lot of magic well used in the seris?
Does it have a soppy romantic theme rather than just a love interest?
I don't buy the authors in my dislike list anymore. I bought one book, found it was awful and never bought another by them again.
I won't waste my hard earned cash on a book I won't like, it's just a shame I have found so many that fall into that list :(
Still, there are also a lot of...
There are a few unfortunately that I just can't get away with.

Anyon else like this author?

I have read most of the books in the Sword of Truth series :)
I think the first 3 books in the series are brilliant. Goodkind as brought together some brilliant characters and I love how he uses magic in the plot lines.
After that the books are still quite good, but the author can drift...
I added a few books into the fantasy section of the Library last week, but as yet they havent appeared.
Are there any problems with the Library section at the moment?

I've just finished reading this book, it very much as a medival feel to the plot. Though I would say it can be quite complex as the author follows a lot of character plot lines.

I have read this series. The first book is the best out of the three, and the 2nd and 3rd I felt lost a lot of momentum as they progressed.
In the end I was left disappointed.
