Bon was it you who recommended reading Raymond E Feist books? Do you realise that you now have 2 more addicts..namely MrS and me. I am about half-way through Silverthorn. MrS has already read it and we have both now read Magician the first in the trilogy

What type of books are they? I’m usually heavily into Murders, the gorier the better, but I’m now reading “The Guernsey Literary and Potato Peel Pie Society” and quite enjoying it.

Fantasy books bubba. Similar sorts of themes to Lord of the Rings. I often read crime & spy thrillers (and also listen to a lot on audiobooks). I also really enjoy historical fiction, and regency period (eg Jane Austen)

hehe yes it was probably me :)

Mr Bon and I are Feist Fans, although to be honest I do prefer his earlier books to the recent ones.

Make sure you don’t skip the Empire Series – these happen around the same time as Magician/Silverthorn, but tell the story of what is happening on Kelewan. Magician is my favourite of his books but the Empire Series is my favourite series. If you need any info on reading order etc then http://www.crydee.com/ is the official site.

Been there and checked out the reading order. Will be limited by what the library has though. As it was had to order Magician and Silverthorn in from other branches of the library.

It is best to read the books following the ‘Alternate’ reading order.
I’m planning to re-read them after all my prac reports are up to date and my exams are over.
