wooo i've just got my hands on a raymond feist book - rise of a merchant prince I'll have to read it!!! Ummm... I sorry to tell you, LBD, but Raise of Merchant Prince is quite near the end in the long series of Raymond Faist books. You can still read and enjoy it, but you won't know a few things (like who is Macros the Black fellow, and why everybody look for him so hard, what is so special about Tomas, and some others things...) If you wish, I can give you the list of the books I have read. The books at the top of the list are the first. Here it is: Main storyline:Magician: Apprentice Magician: Master Silverthron Darkness at Sethanon Prince of the Blood King's Bucaneer Shadow of the Dark Queen Raise of Merchant Prince Rage of Demon King Side storyline (takes place since the end of 'Magician: Apprentice' slightly further the end of 'Darkness at Sethanon'):Daughter of the Empire Servant of the Empire Mistress of the Empire There are a few others books by Raymond Faist, set in the same worlds (i.e. Midkemia and Kelewan), for example, 'Krondor: the Betrayal', but unfortunately, I haven't read them. I hope, that I was able to help you a bit, LBD.

I'm a huge Terry Pratchett fan, having read every Discworld except for wee free men and Monstrous Regiment.
If you like Terry Pratchett I recommend to you a book called Good Omens, which is a darkly comic collaboration between him and Neil Gaiman.
As for Feist, I've just started Shadow of a Dark Queen. Fiest is good, but not as good as George R R Martin. Fnastay lovers must read A Song of Ice and Fire.

btw, of the 25 Dragonlance books, am I right in assuming that most of them were not written by Weis and Hickman.
I've read The original Dragonlance Trilogy, the Twins Trilogy (Raistlin has to be one of my fave fictional chars of all time) and the Love and War short story anthology.

Fiest is good, but not as good as George R R Martin. Fnastay lovers must read A Song of Ice and Fire. I must say, Shura, that I heave read both Raymond Feist and George Martin, and I liked Raymond Feist more. True, if you are looking toaward intrigues and power struggle, you will find more of them in George Martin's books. However, if you have read Raymond Feist's trilogy about the Empire of Tsuranuani (Daughter of the Empire, Servant of the Empire, Mistress of the Empire), you must admit, that in these books, Raymond Feist's intrigues and power stuggles are at least as complicated and interesting as George Martin's, and IMHO, even better then George Martin's. In most others books, Raymond Feist favors adventure and romance over intrigues and power stuggles, but you will find a hint of them from time to time as well (just one Prince of the Blood is worth something!) So, Shura, IMHO Raymond Feist's books are better then George Martin's, but that's just my opinion.

Hell no reason why we can't have both, no?
Forgot, must add IMHO when I make a judgement. Then again, I actually havent read his empire series.
