Never read Without Remorse but I think I bought it at a used book store at some point... I'll have to track it down.
Rocket River - Thanks for reminding me of Octavia Butler. I love her books and was very sad that she died a couple of years ago (as a matter of fact, Feb 24, 2006). I strongly recommend her books. She has several different excellent series.
The Foundation series by Isaac Asimov, read them the summer before my freshman year in highschool, loved them.
Amazon.com is your friend The southern vampire mysteries are way better than Twillight in my opinion. Book 9 comes out in May and I'm psyched for it.
Amazon IS my friend! However, Amazon costs money - money I'd rather spend on a tank of gas or eating. My family can get me the books for my birthday and it won't cost me any money! I'll add another series to the mix: I Spy - Walter Wick/Jean Marzollo
The public library can be your friend, too. You can go online and reserve any book in any library branch...and they'll deliver it to the branch you request. You'll get an email when it's delivered there...you pick it up and check it out. You can recheck it online without going back to the library to do so.
Wow, I haven't been to a public library in years, thanks to technology. It was my favorite place growing up. I need to make it my favorite place again and I could save $$ if I want to buy a certain book.
Wheel of Time Ender/Bean Saga Amber Chronicles Hobbit/Lord of the Rings Harry Potter Bone Dragonlance (more so when I was in high school, read them again recently and they felt a little "Dungeons & Dragons Campaign"-y) Death Gate (although they kind of fizzled out in the end) The Dresden Files (currently reading... I'm both annoyed and entertained by it) One of these days I'll read Riftwar... I have read the Empire Trilogy, but it was basically Shogun
I used to read fantasy novels quite a bit. The series I loved the most and hated the most was the Wheel of Time. I loved it at first and slowly began to hate it when I realized that it was never going to end and that the author would probably die before it was finished. Well, guess what happened?!
Most of the ones I was thinking of were already mentioned. Two from my childhood not mentioned: The Three Investigators, and Lloyd Alexander's Westmark series.
