    i have recently begun reading this authors books after reading "Lords and Ladies" (insert kowtow here) for the ninethousanth ninehundred and ninety ninth time, i've read his first three books

    By Raymond E. Feist:
    'Magician'
    'Silverthorn'
    'darkness at sethanorn'

    they are very good, if ne of u like fantasy/adventure with a bit of myth thrown in for good measure

    Those three books were grand I thought.
    He went downhill after that tho. The characters just didnt have the same appeal of the likes of jimmy the hand, and pug as a kid.

    I get's mixed up - is that the guy with the riftwar series?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,313 ✭✭✭Paladin


    Ya


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 890 ✭✭✭Wyverne


    yeah great books.
    he also has another series out, called the serpentwar saga which is equally as good, and paladin u would luv the way jimmy turns out, its all the same characters, good reading 4 books in total

    Usually his books are quite good with the main exception of the Empire Trilogy which has not as convincing characters as his Riftwar world.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 890 ✭✭✭Wyverne


    i actually enjoyed the empire trilogy.
    it wasn't the same as the riftwar series, it was a different theme.

    but it was interesting the way they took the other side during the same time as the riftwar.

    and of course the main character i thought was cool, what was her name again?
    anyway she was kewl

    farie tale is excellent and its fantasy horror.
    better than all the rest of his books.
    reads a bit like stephen king if you are into easy reading entertainment
