Suggest a book for the bookworm?
I'm looking for something new for now.
I'm a fantasy reader. Any fantasy really.
I'm looking for something new.
Not just the same old whatever is popular right now.
How about a taste of what I've got:
Jim Butcher
Terry Brooks
Terry Pratchett
Artemis Fowl, Percy Jackson, Harry Potter.
I've read Twilight, I don't love it, but I don't loathe it... it just is, I'm not going to waste energy on a strong opinion.
A fair number of Vampire based urban fantasy
The Night Angel by Brent Weeks, I'm waiting for others from him.
The Nightside by Simon R. Green
So dig in and give me something to sink my teeth into. What's your favorite story? Share it with me please.
High Fantasy, Steampunk, Urban fantasy.
Give me a kid with a magic sword, or a telepath with a ray gun on an adventure. Maybe a failed prince. Or a private detective. How about a wizard searching for his confidence.
I'm in a funk and nothing I have is catching my eye, and I can't pick anything out at the store because I haven't got three hours to dig for treasure in the stacks.

I loved The Series of Unfortunate Events. It's 13 books long. Some people say it's a kid's book (I mean, it's not adult) but I'd be surprised if there were a lot of 8 year olds going through a 13 book long series. You should check it out, I love it.
