Hello its me again!
Making another Pointless Posts :oops:

Sooooo
What is your favourite book/book series
And why?

Mine is a really tough choice between Throne of Glass, A Court of Thorns and Roses (both Sara J. Maas) and the Red Queen series (Victoria Aveyard)
Ill have to say... drumroll Throne of Glass! Because it is a very well written story, and has 4 books atm (5th coming september) A Court of Thorns only has 1 book atm, next one coming in march or may (woo) red queen is really good, i think there is only 2 books atm
:lol:

Almost all my money has been spent on books in waterstones :oops:

What do you think?

Besides the usual Tolkien books my faves that have a permanent place in my bookshelf are:

Riftwar Saga by Raymond E. Feist
Belgariad and Malloreon series by David Eddings
Chronicles of Thomas Covenant (3 series) by Stephen Donaldson
Fionavar Tapestry by Guy Gavriel Kay
Dragonlance Chronicles and Legends Trilogies by Margaret Weis & Tracy Hickman

These were all the books I read after LOTR/The Hobbit that drew me to epic fantasy genre way back in H.S. a long time ago. :)

1) It's long. Roughly:
book 1: 375
Book 2: 375
Book 3: 335
Book 4: 375
Book 5: 415
Book 6: 405
Book 7: 485
Book 8: 549
Book 9: 544
Book 10: 594
2) Really good story
3) I like travelling through space and time, which the book is pretty much about
4) Keeps me curious about what happens next
5) Um um um.. Wierdo beasties pop out whenever the characters enter a new world
6) Worse to read than my Drawing Book ._.
Well..

Good post, don't think it is pointless.

Lord of the Flies
The reason why is it shows how civilized, disciplined humans can be. Then as they get accustomed to the wild they become brutal, barbaric in life in the jungle.
