Re: *gasps* Some amazon.com person is comparing him to Jasper Fforde. Is this true? Camilla Send a noteboard - 12/09/2009 10:37:45 AM
If so, I will read him if I can find him.

Also, the surname "Harkaway" is the bee's knees. I've never heard that one before. Is it his real name?


I had not thought of making that comparison. He is less ... Welsh. And less absurd-crazy-outofthisworld. But he has the same control over his language, and the same sudden brilliant turns of phrase. Harkaway is much darker, though.

It is hard to tell for sure with only one book but I have hopes for Patrick Rothfuss. *NM* Tashmere - 12/09/2009 01:09:19 AM 253 Views

Well, recently I've only read Kristin Cashore out of new authors. I guess it's her by default. *NM* IndigoAjah - 17/09/2009 12:40:56 AM 280 Views
