Eldritch Posted January 20, 2003 Share Posted January 20, 2003 In no particular order... LoTR by JRR Tolkien(I've re-read these many times over the years, most recently before each of the movies have been released) Harry Potter by JK Rowling (look for my map based on Hogwarts soon ) The Vampire Chronicles (and New Tales of the Vampires) by Anne Rice There's more, but I can't think of them right now. Those are the big 3, anyway... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sam Fisher Posted January 24, 2003 Share Posted January 24, 2003 LOTR: very good writing. NJO: kill all the Vong! Redwall: pretty good books. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Qui-GONE Jinn Posted January 26, 2003 Share Posted January 26, 2003 Definitely The Wheel of Time The greatest, most powerful epic I've ever read, far better than Tolkien's works. ... You do know the only reason many of you have read LotR, is because of the films, right? Well, if you liked LotR, check out WoT. You'll be impressed.

Darth Talliusc Posted February 1, 2003 Share Posted February 1, 2003 tie between the wheel of time and the thrawn trilogy. both are done so very very well. but they both have their downsides. wheel of time is a bit too complex at parts (trying to remember every name and history and plots within plots for an entire world can get a might bit confusing) and thrawn died. other then that they are both absolutely wonderful. go read now... stop reading this and go read them.... you're an odd one arent you?...... ok seriously stop reading now....... now why the heck are you still reading this?.... do you honestly think im going to say anything meaningful here?.....stop it..... leave me alone...

ForceElf Posted February 1, 2003 Share Posted February 1, 2003 Lotr. And the Greyhawk novels by Paul Kidd those are a good read for fantasy and a good laugh. it has a Horny faerie, A drunk guy who was turned into a badger, A bald ranger whos only name is Jus(Short of Justicar), and a pryomanic Telpathic Hell Hound Pelt. Oh yes and a Sphinx named Endi. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pnut_Man Posted February 1, 2003 Share Posted February 1, 2003 In no particular order: Star Wars: NJO (Traitor was one of the most compelling books I ever read) Dragon Lance: Lots of action, always fun to read.. LOTR: Classics, I always wanted to read this series Harry Potter: Excluding the first novel, the whole series is great Stephen King's IT: A f**ked up book, but still awesome and disturbing as hell Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
