    I also heard of dragonlance, but as I live together with my darling God Keitaro, I mainly read fantasy novels, especially from magic the gathering, which are a bit complicated to read, but they are interesting.
    My sweethaert shall rest in peace. He was the best thing, which could have ever happened to me! Thank you, Reza Mobasheri, for loving me! I still love you! Why had this to be! Why was fate so cruel to me!

    That is a truly magnificent book... one of the best science fiction I've ever laid my eyes on, to say the truth.

    I don't think I can list my favourite books right now, but I'm pretty fond of the Inkheart trilogy (the movie doesn't even come close, believe me), and pretty much anything by the great Terry Pratchett.

    Cool. I love Terry Pratchett myself. A really good book of his with another good author is Good Omens. He wrote that with Neil Gaiman, someone i forgot to mention.

    I've read a book called White Tiger, i think it was released in 2008.
    Quite interesting, it's about a Boy in India, climbing his way out of the poor to the New India.
    It's written as letters, and the story is quite good aswell.

    I'll go with that, though some of his more recent efforts have been hard going...

    And 2 years later.. I'm a little late replying i guess.. lol

    For me it's Fizban and the Kender Tas, i need to read that series again.. been over 5 years since i last read it.

    I haven't read any other dragonlance books, only that trilogy, i'm open to get others, but i need recommendations. The reason i bought the first set was because friends of mine were playing D&D and wanted me to get in the act and told me to prepare by reading it. They also told me that as a package, it was the one to get.
    Some people wish to get what they deserve, while others fear the same.

    Well yeah, for dragonlance, the chronicles are the best to start with. If you're interested on how the characters met initially, there's "The Soulforge" and "Brothers in Arms", which are like a prequel to the tale of "Chronicles".
    Afterwards, you might want to read them in chronological order. That means the "Twins" trilogy, followed by "The Second Generation" and "Dragons of a Summer Flame". Most of them are Weiss/Hickman (I think the first two are just Weiss's, but whatever). The story carries on afterwards, but the characters are totally different by then, and even though I've read some, I didn't like them as much as the first ones.
    One day, God loomed over His Earth and proclaimed, for the whole world to hear: "Let there be a single, faultless speck of light on this plane; One which will happily glint undisturbed forevermore...", and as His strained voice echoed throughout the entire Universe, He uttered just one last sentence, decisive and final:

    I'll add to my previous post and say Ender's Game, Slaughterhouse Five and The Catcher in the Rye are among my all-time faves. Might edit later as I think of more.
