I had read Warhammer stories recently. First and last book. The stories are fast told, but not wise. Probably enchanted with dark humour... - a little bit more funnier was to reading about the author. That's the inspiration :-D
(David Ferring)

The plot is complicated and remains unsolved. Plus bit stupid.

It's a series of books about good and evil, magic, standard fantasy fare.

into the Lone Drow now, I thought I wouldn't have liked this last series (not sure why) but I am quite into it, helps that I have all the books here to read, so I don't get distracted

now trying servant of the shard, finished the two swords (so no more Drizzt for the moment) and it was good, but I just hate being in series that are not yet finished .... I'm now waiting on Janny Wurts, Raymond E. Feist, Robert Jordan, RA Salvatore, George RR Martin .... and I think that's it for the moment ....

Any fans of Harry Turtledove out there? Philip Jose Farmer? Howard Waldrop?
