I like em. I'm reading the tenth one now. I guess I like the characters from kid's stories best.

I'm about to finish the 2nd book in the Kingkiller Chronicle. I'll look into these.

When you finish the Ranger books you should check out Kingkiller. Rothfuss is a really good writer.

The writing is a bit simplistic, but the Rangers Apprentice is decent.

I have only read book 1 of the Kingkiller and enjoyed it alot.

book 2 of Kingkiller isn't quite as good, but it is still an excellent read.

Rather good actually, I'm at cd3 on the first book.. I like it that it's not all harsh and cruel for a change, now if the main character just turns out to be a sadistic half-psychotic lunatic I will like this series, but ofc he won't they never do, THEY ALWAYS DISSAPOINT..

F'kin goodie goodie makes me sick..

Ugh.

Looking forward to reading the 2nd.

I'm reading the second book in the Malazan Book of the Fallen series and am planning on going the distance with the series.

They define longwinded, it's basically the main character marching on the same spot for 30 minutes and then it's 30 minutes of Tavernkeeper weekely and then back to say about 30 minutes of pining for that whore of a slutty bitch who should just either f'kin croak so that I don't have to suffer her ineptitude and incompetence or she should just profess her love for the main character and give him gonorrhea already, because everytime he f'ks up and does something retarded it's because of her and it's making the story repetitive and thin.

Read the Lies of Locke Lamora instead, I had a revenge and clever boner the whole book.. the main char is just brilliant.

Just looked up the book and author.

It is on the short list and looks like it will not disappoint.

Still going to read the kingkiller sequel.

It sounds like he fell into the wheel of time spell. Rehashing the same theme over and over.

I would rather bang my head on the proverbial wall and read it than walk by it every day at the book store pissed at myself for not trying it.

Don't get me wrong, it is still very much worth reading, I just had hoped for a bit more.

I kinda lost it with that series around 4 or 5. It wasn't bad, I just lost interest with all the bouncing around book to book.
