If you like King Arthur and such, check out Uther by Jack Whyte, or any of his books for that matter. Just finished Uther and it was great, adds a lot to the very basic version of the legend that most people know of. Another great author that mixes 'history' (or at least the legends and such of those times) and fantasy is Guy Gavriel Kay. Not only do they make for great books but you learn something real about those times.

I just finished reading "The Anthem" by Ayn Rand.(course its only about 100 pages, so it dosen't take but a couple hours.) I hate myself for not reading it before But I did, and I loved it, I'll definately be re-reading it soon.

I just finished reading one of the best books I ever have, topping Lord of the rings and Harry pot... well, that ones a bit *BLEEP*....

Philip Pullman - His Dark Materials, The Golden Compass.
The Golden compass is the 1st of 3rd parts in the darkmaterials, 2nd being The Subtle Knife, and the last being The Amber Spyglass.

I've only read the first part, and started the second, but I can tell, they are by far going to be awesome. I highly advise anyone to read these books. you'll love them, without a doubt.

right now im being forced to read Northern Lights - Philip Pullman. I dont really see what's so good about it yet. i just hope it gets better because i bought the whole trilogy

btw, i think u mean the Northern Lights is the first in the trilogy, it even says it on the back 'first book in the His Dark Materials trilogy'...

I think that the first book has two differet names for some bizarre reason. The name on my version is The Golden Compass. That makes more sense cos the other two titles are the names of the two main inventions in the book and the golden compass is the main invention in the first. It does get better. The first pages are about building characters and developing a base. same as most good books actually....

I'm currently reading Slaughter-House-Five (for school) by Kurt Vonnegut. His writing style is amusing, and he seems like a very quirky guy. I'm not too far into it, but I gotta finish reading it because I have to read another book for school (a long crappy book ).
