Turned out I loved the world he created in that trilogy (as well as the way-to-short 4th book). So after reading those books I decided I had to read everything he wrote. I've finish Elantris and I'm around 40% of the way through this one. So far it isn't my favorite and I've found it to be a bit slow on the start but it is still very well written. I'm a huge fan of his and look forward to future books. Ha, me too in that order also, good auther, good books.... With epub's so easy to download I find myself reading way more than in the past...

Seems somewhat overly wordy to me, and not nearly as fast paced as A Song of Ice and Fire... but I'll finish at least the first book before I make a final decision as to if I will read the series... | ||

I do not know what genre you seek exactly but a few of the top of my head: Stendhal: The red and the Black Flaubert: A sentimental education Dostoevsky: The Idiot, Brothers Karamazov, Crime and Punishment James Joyce: A portrait of the artist as a young man, Ulysses Huxley: After many a summer dies a swan, Grey Eminence Joseph Conrad: Heart of Darkness | ||

Can anyone recommend to me a few good books to start on? 1984 by Orwell < most people tend to just stop there. Basic Writings of Nietzsche by Nietzsche The Most Beautiful Woman in Town & Other Stories by Bukowsk Molloy by Beckett The Lord Chandos Letter and Other Writings by Hoffmansthal Look them up on Google Books preview or something first, obviously. Read what you enjoy. I don't read large fiction books because I find them extremely tedious and boring, seriously, there have been seven Harry Potter books? | ||

Read at least the first three. It's hard to get into, but once you do it's the best series youll ever read | ||

I'm also near the beginning of Vanity Fair. I'm not sure I'll have the patience for it though, I'm finding his fourth-wall breaking digressions somewhat grating in addition to the intimidating length. | ||
