The Hobbit really turned me into a reader too. Jacob Send a noteboard - 14/12/2009 07:29:05 PM
For several different reasons. The Hobbit because it was the first "adult" book I ever read- it got me into reading. WoT because it led me to wotmania, and from there to a whole new world of things to read. Then there were books that really challenged my thinking, like the Hyperion Cantos.


I am curious about what things in Hyperion Cantos really challenged your thinking. I love the books and love discussing them, which is why I ask. :)
