A must read is this new dude Michael Evans, he wrote the Children of Reckoning, 600+ page book its amazing! He's 18 so if his book kicks off, then others will probs follow. Cos he is young and if he writes for the rest of his life, he is the next generation so its gotta be a must read, just to check out what we have to look forward to. I really enjoyed it, damn cliffhangers lmao, but he's got a really aggresive style of writing and defintely a flair for it at his age.
Heres a link to his book take a look:

But i like his myspace more - actually replies and what not!

Tom Lloyd's next book (the name escapes me), and Scott Lynch's final book in his trilogy. These last two I don't know when they are due out.


I think 'The Grave Thief' (Tom Lloyd) and 'Republic of Thieves' (Scott Lynch) are both 2009 releases...

Thanks Skan - ok to call you that or you have another you prefer to go by? Anyway i heard that Evans kid was going in the papers next week so im gonna look for that and see if he has any book signings coming up.
Id also say Kate Elliot - Shadow Gate is pretty good, although its the second in the series so best to read the other one first

Thats fine Richy call me anything you want (within reason). Very Happy

Im still devouring my way through Bernard Cornwells Sharpe books in chronological order , so far im on to Sharpes Fury and all of them are fast paced and action packed and i dont know why i waited so long to begin reading them.
