Favorite Books

My gosh. I don't believe that. I forgot to list the Inheritance Cycle. And we were just talking about it before I posted this thread. Well, that one too. Just finished Brisingr yesterday, and my only complaint is that I think Christopher Paolini still puts to much description in his books.

Everyone keeps quoting on this and I don't know what it is. Can someone fill me in.

Anyone says a word about Brisingr's storyline, and they'll wake up in Cambodia with a large bump on their head.

I also forgot to mention "The Dark is Rising" series. Read all five, and liked 'em. Though I haven't seen the movie yet.

Why not mention it?

Harry Potter series, Eragon, Eldest, soon to be Brisingr, hopefully.

They're all really good books. J.K. Rowling and Christopher Paolini are excellent authors.

I think I read hilf of Bringser and then got disstracted by another book. Which one is Bringser Just to make sure it is the one I read half of?

Brisingr is the third book in the Eragon series. So if you didn't read Eragon and Eldest then you probably have no idea what it's about.

Oh. I thought it was a different book. I don't have it but I do have Eragon and Eldest. I haven't had a chance to read them though.

The Hobbit has out-shined countless books, and never ceases to amaze me.

I've been meaning to read that actually. I haven't gotten the chance yet though. I might pick it up from the library.

Oh, I just thought of another author among my favorites. Terry Pratchett. He's an awesome fantasy writer, and the books are hilarious. I'd highly recommend them to most people.

Are you talking about the Superman comic or a regular book? It is a very good comic.

School ruined me for reading, but the books I prefer are The Secret Garden, Titanic: The Long Night, and The Hidden World.

Nobody mentioned Dune yet? For shame! :p

All of Frank Herbert's books are great, but avoid the later stuff by his son. They raped his father's works.

But if you want to know the greatest science fiction author of all time, there is but one man, my idol:

 

[Hylian Hobbit]

I just finished Brisingr today. I thought it was very good. Best of the three imo.
