It is just impossible to choose ONE character that is a favorite.
I loved following the story of the young man with all his doubts and fears come into this glory, and be crowned king.
I loved the story of a young boy who through friendship and love struggled to be the one who destroyed all that was bad forever, leaving the world in peace that everyone enjoyed.
I also loved the story of a lesser wizzard fighting the demon, dying, and coming back better and stronger, to kick some more arse.
I loved the story of two brothers who had a demented father, that they both loved, and one died for, and the other would have died for, if not for the intervention of some friends.
I loved the story of a young maiden, who lost everything - but found love in that loss - even though she could not keep it, and had to move on later. It was that love that brought her through for that time being.
So many stories told, and told well.......... who can choose?
