*cracks his back* Man, I'm sleepy.
I want to go read something...any one want to suggest a novel to me?
The Dragonbone Chair by Tad Williams. -- Light fantasy, first book in a trilogy called Memory, Sorrow, and Thorn. Superb read.
Wolfskin by Juliet Marillier -- Historical based light fantasy dealing with the norse population of what is now Scotland.
The Colour of Magic by Terry Pratchett -- The first book of twenty-something set in the Discworld, a highly satircal take on fantasy. Even if you aren't a huge fantasy buff, the series is worth it for the incredible humor and well-written stories. Another bonus? You don't need to read many of the books in order since it isn't a straight series, but has several subsets of books that deal with different groups within the Disc.
Good Omens by Terry Pratchett and Neil Gaiman -- A darkly humorous take on the upcoming Apocalypse.
People of the Wolf by W. Michael Gear and Kathleen O'Neal Gear -- Slightly fantastical take on the arrival of the first Native Americans to North America. The Gears, a married couple of Mesoamerican Archaeologists use reoccuring themes in Native American mythology as well as archaeological theories and evidence to form the base of their stories in this loose series, The First North Americans. I think Nabs and Kyle might like these books too.
The One Kingdom by Sean Russel Or The Initiate Brother by the same author. -- Sean Russel is a master of light fantasy with an emphasis on exploring the unknown or mysterious lost lore in his worlds. Superb reading. The One Kingdom is in a western middle-ages setting while The Initiate Brother is in what feels like mythic China.
American Gods by Neil Gaiman -- Just plain awesome.
Beyond the Pale by Mark Anthony
Assassin's Apprentice by Robin Hobb
The Shadow of Ararat by Thomas Harlan
Black Sun Rising by C.S. Friedman
The Middle Kingdom by David Wingrove
I'd go into more of them... but my space key is dying...
