I ordered 3 new books from this local bookstore last week:
- "Bloodcurdling Tales of Horror and The Macabre" by
H. P. Lovecraft- "Tales of The Cthulhu Mythos" by
H. P. Lovecraft and others- "Soul of The Fire" by
Terry Goodkind.
Soul of The Fire is the 5th book in The Sword of Truth series. I've been addicted to it for a while. Definitely some good reads in there.
Also, always been interested in reading some Lovecraft since a buddy of mind from high school was geeking out about his writing style.
So, here's the question: What kind of books or novels do you guys read, if you do, indeed read. ( the age range on the forum sets that off
)
Another Terry Goodkind reader! Hat's off to you, sir. I've been a fan of his work since I read his first book; I have every book he wrote with the exception of The Law of Nines (It's not a Richard/Kahlan novel, it's a mystery/thriller). My favorite of his series is Faith of the Fallen. Just a heads up, Debt of Bones is not focused on Richard and Kahlan like the others; its primary purpose is to set up some history with Zedd.
May I recommend
The Wheel of Time series as complimentary material? The genre is very similar.
I've read a few of the classics: Moby Dick, Huckleberry Finn, and yes, War and Peace.
The genres I read tend towards Sci-Fi/Fantasy and Romance. A list of my favored authors include:
Terry Goodkind, Timothy Zahn, Robert Heinlen, Issac Assimov, A C Crispin, Mary Balogh, Susan Wiggs, Suzanne Ledbetter, Janet Evanovich, Barb and J.C. Hendee, J. R. R. Tolkien. This is certainly not a comprehensive list, and I'd be willing to expand upon it should anyone ask me to.
