Thanks for that Paul,
All i need is another series to keep me on tender hooks *laugh*.
I was used to reading Anne Rice and of all things Stephen King till my brother
got me hooked on Ray which i have to say is far superior reading. But the
series and getting hooked on a line of characters who you never want to end is
almost too much LOL.
I will check out Memory of light though, who is the Author?
Kind regards
Lani
I recommend Jim Butcher's The Dresden Files. The first book is "Storm Front",
and it is a very engrossing and captivating series. Keeps my attention as much
as as Ray's books do.
The series is modern-day fantasy about a wizard who advertises in the
phone-book and helps the police out on their "weird and unusual" cases. It's
written in first person, but very well done.
The 15th book in the series, Cold Days, is due to be released at the end of
this month.
Anestis.
I'm yet to make it to the Dresden Files, but I thought Jim Butcher's Codex
Alera series was fantastic, the first 3 or 4 especially. I've read few first
person books, but Robin Hobb's Farseer Trilogy always stands out to me when I
think of books written from that viewpoint.
