The first 3 in the series pale in comparison to the Icewind Dale trilogy...

Granted I agree he's not the greatest author in the world. I mainly read his books for the fight sequences. Plus it's a nice story.

and you shush about Dungeons and Dragons players... (I've played for like 10 years) XDDD <3

Sorry I meant the first two in the Legend of Drizzt series. I know I've read other books by him before but I can't for the life of me remember what they were, was a long time ago.

Hahahahaha, I jest about DnD players XD my first boyfriend was a huge fan and ditched me a lot for like eight hour long games, I'm a little bitter towards the franchise.

Just finished Coraline and The Mists of Avalon. Starting Anansi Boys.

Anansi Boys was hilarious.

One of the reasons I love Gaiman so much is because he's so.. versatile. He can produce the more serious American Gods, the hilarious Anansi Boys, the creepy not-quite-children's book Coraline, and then the actual children's books. Plus Sandman. DON'T FORGET SANDMAN. Ahhh.. Gaimanlove<3

Saya · 09-02-2009, 01:23 PM

I still haven't seen the Coraline movie, I'm still mad over the Stardust film, I'm afraid something similar happened.

I like his short stories the best though, Smoke And Mirrors is probably my favourite book right now. I'm considering buying this zombie book just because a short story of his is in it.

HellforgedX · 09-02-2009, 02:40 PM

Gaiman is a god. Not sure of what, yet, or even if his (His?) influence is that great, but he's (He's) a helluvan author!

Currently reading through the Undead series, by MJ Davidson. Damn you, Pineapple!!!

Mr E Nigma · 09-02-2009, 04:45 PM

I enjoyed Stardust and Coraline. I'm a huge Neil Gaiman fan, ever since reading Good Omens I've torn through Gaiman and Pratchett's works.

Also Saya - For the record if you wanted to hang out with me, D&D would be the one getting ditched. Just like my WoW activities.. I see so many game addicts, but I can't figure out for the life of me why they'd want to do that over possibly hittin' it with their female counterpart... or simply having a lovely conversation and spending time together.. it baffles me.

You play WoW?!!!!

Which server? I wanna play with you now XD I started playing because of the same guy, I got bored going over to his house and just either watching him play WoW or pretending it didn't bother me by bringing over my DS.

Still haven't read Pratchett, will get on that.

korinna5555 · 09-02-2009, 05:25 PM

GET ON IT NOW, WOMAN.

Slightly off topic, but two years ago, my stepdad bought me a green and purple plush dragon. I named her Octarine, cause I'm awesome like that.

Mr E Nigma · 09-02-2009, 11:19 PM

Saya - Burning Blade (I just started an or hunter... our guild is "We Iz Muckin About"

if you can manage it, making an orc would relate.. if you want another race, that's quite fine as well ^_^

Saya · 09-02-2009, 11:21 PM

I'll be an orc warlock then ^_^ I gave up my subscription for the summer, but I'll pick it up again in a week or two.

Lord Thomas Von Slut Esq. · 09-03-2009, 12:29 AM

Obviously like... The Raven by Edgar Allan Poe.

Duh... can't it get anymore obvious *smokes clove*

Finished David Suzuki's Green Guide, fascinating stuff. Now on to Nightmares and Dreamscapes by Stephen King.

I bought that book just so I could read Night Flyer.

Call of Cthulhu

It.

And as I haven't seen the movie, I'm just wondering if there was also presented a way how kids (or more likely Beverly) helped Eddie to recall how to get out of the sewers.

korinna5555 · 09-07-2009, 01:33 PM

Chocolat, I forget who it was written by
