I think you're right about a new Incarnations book; I seem to recall seeing something in passing. Joel Send a noteboard - 25/01/2010 10:55:36 AM
Way to "uncomplete" a series I thought I finished twenty years ago, dude; awesome! :P

Recommendations for a fantasy series Tom - 22/01/2010 03:27:38 AM 1620 Views
Has she read Erikson/would war-based fantasy put her off? Ghavrel - 22/01/2010 03:30:36 AM 1165 Views
What she liked about Martin was the political intrigue and realism. Tom - 24/01/2010 03:07:34 AM 1073 Views
Very much so. Ghavrel - 24/01/2010 03:30:47 AM 1049 Views
The trilogy of Memory, Sorrow, and Thorn by Tad Williams. Dreaded Anomaly - 22/01/2010 04:07:26 AM 1184 Views
What is the basic idea of the trilogy, if you don't mind my asking? Tom - 24/01/2010 03:08:12 AM 1076 Views
It's a mix of quest fantasy and political intrigue. Dreaded Anomaly - 24/01/2010 04:28:03 AM 1144 Views
If she doesn't like all the fantasy races and all much, though... Legolas - 24/01/2010 11:58:45 AM 924 Views
Otherland is also good, but it meanders a lot more than MS&T. Also, it's more sci-fi than fantasy. *NM* Dreaded Anomaly - 24/01/2010 05:11:16 PM 525 Views
Wrong place. Ignore. *NM* fionwe1987 - 24/01/2010 11:05:51 AM 458 Views
I'd go for this Wibble - 24/01/2010 02:25:04 PM 1126 Views
thats one of the most beautifully written fantasies I've ever read imlad - 24/01/2010 09:49:40 PM 1156 Views
Scott Lynch, though the series is no wheres near complete, the Lies of Locke Lamora is damn good. *NM* callandor1000 - 22/01/2010 05:13:14 AM 515 Views
^ This. Nate - 23/01/2010 04:16:53 PM 992 Views
If the series isn't done she won't read it. Tom - 24/01/2010 03:09:02 AM 1015 Views
That's fair. It won't be done for awhile. Nate - 24/01/2010 08:59:54 AM 1168 Views
It's not so much a series as a "oh, people liked my book, I'll start writing sequels". Legolas - 24/01/2010 11:55:47 AM 1041 Views
Actually, I think all seven books were planned early on... jh - 24/01/2010 06:05:27 PM 1037 Views
and she'll laugh her ass off at times *NM* imlad - 24/01/2010 09:51:16 PM 451 Views
i've been digging the hell out of the incarnations of immortality series by piers anthony moondog - 22/01/2010 05:26:07 AM 1019 Views
What is the basic premise? *NM* Tom - 24/01/2010 03:09:37 AM 443 Views
Re: What is the basic premise? moondog - 24/01/2010 06:15:55 PM 1151 Views
I'll second the recommendation, btw. Joel - 25/01/2010 11:03:56 AM 1000 Views
thats one of Anthony's series I actually think is good imlad - 24/01/2010 09:54:55 PM 1050 Views

This is a shot in the dark Spriteling - 22/01/2010 07:37:49 AM 1256 Views
How many books are there and what are they about? *NM* Tom - 24/01/2010 03:10:11 AM 534 Views
The Empire series by Feist and Wurtz? Elaine - 22/01/2010 12:47:50 PM 1135 Views
This is getting to be information overload Tom - 24/01/2010 03:11:18 AM 922 Views
well, in this section of the thread, I'd say Empire series, but for the other sections: imlad - 24/01/2010 09:59:42 PM 1067 Views
Right Elaine - 25/01/2010 02:12:06 PM 1044 Views
Empire trilogy is awesome imlad - 24/01/2010 09:57:39 PM 1138 Views
I did, way back when - you don't need to have read Riftwar. *NM* Legolas - 24/01/2010 10:06:05 PM 452 Views
Si. Elaine - 25/01/2010 02:10:45 PM 968 Views
A big thank you to everyone with suggestions!!! Tom - 22/01/2010 01:17:54 PM 995 Views
Abercrombie or maybe Guy Gavriel Kay. *NM* Werthead - 22/01/2010 03:14:03 PM 467 Views
Seconded Tigr - 22/01/2010 09:07:44 PM 908 Views
Can you give me a bit more insight (either of you) ? Tom - 24/01/2010 03:12:23 AM 1020 Views
I can't speak to Abercrombie, but Kay writes fantasy history. Nate - 24/01/2010 09:15:05 AM 1013 Views
Kay is a beautiful writer. Tigr - 25/01/2010 05:01:14 PM 1151 Views
I'd suggest Stephen King's Dark Tower series. *NM* j-whitt987 - 22/01/2010 03:21:12 PM 469 Views
She wouldn't like it. I'm sure of that. *NM* Tom - 24/01/2010 03:12:43 AM 470 Views
Well that sucks. It's a great series. Even The Gun Slinger has its good parts. *NM* j-whitt987 - 24/01/2010 03:50:20 AM 414 Views
Melanie Rawn's Dragon Prince and Dragon Star Trilogies Myrdhyn - 22/01/2010 04:29:43 PM 1004 Views
I enjoyed the Dragon Prince series. j-whitt987 - 22/01/2010 10:19:31 PM 1109 Views
The heavy emphasis on the word "Dragon" in both series makes me wary Tom - 24/01/2010 03:15:52 AM 956 Views
Yeah, I always had the same worry when it was suggested to me. lord-of-shadow - 26/01/2010 12:53:14 AM 1218 Views
You have now Wibble - 24/01/2010 02:19:11 PM 972 Views
Go completely in another direction PhotoJim - 22/01/2010 06:22:45 PM 977 Views
Eh...I don't think so. *NM* Tom - 24/01/2010 03:16:57 AM 444 Views
Series are hard. jh - 22/01/2010 08:10:30 PM 1201 Views
Sapkowski is translated into Russian (Polish to Russian almost doesn't require thought) Tom - 24/01/2010 03:18:37 AM 1000 Views
Latro in the Mist or the two omnibi that comprise The Book of the New Sun Larry - 24/01/2010 03:33:39 AM 1032 Views
Seconded on The Book of the New Sun. Ghavrel - 24/01/2010 03:35:56 AM 993 Views
Thirded on The Book of the New Sun. *NM* Vodalus - 29/01/2010 04:42:21 AM 448 Views
Yes, what he said. Avoid the Wizard/Knight books if faeries are off limits, though. *NM* jh - 24/01/2010 06:09:02 PM 430 Views
Does she like Lovecraft any? Larry - 23/01/2010 12:06:48 AM 1033 Views
McKillip is lovely. *NM* Rebekah - 23/01/2010 12:34:36 AM 384 Views
No, she doesn't like Lovecraft. She's a girl, after all. Tom - 24/01/2010 03:19:31 AM 919 Views
In that case... Larry - 24/01/2010 03:29:21 AM 1061 Views

I love your false modesty. jh - 23/01/2010 10:35:25 AM 1114 Views
Dark Fantasy may be good. Tom - 24/01/2010 03:23:31 AM 1037 Views
I don't remember thinking of Transformation as dark fantasy...I am not sure that everybody is Tashmere - 24/01/2010 04:26:31 AM 1129 Views

Jennifer Fallon - Second Sons aria - 23/01/2010 12:59:10 PM 849 Views
Is it finished? *NM* Tom - 24/01/2010 03:23:50 AM 418 Views
Yes it is. Rebekah - 24/01/2010 09:52:24 AM 899 Views
I haven't read that one but the Demon Child series sure was a fun ride. *NM* Tashmere - 24/01/2010 04:29:37 AM 393 Views
What else has she enjoyed and how long has she been reading fantasy? *NM* Tashmere - 24/01/2010 04:30:21 AM 437 Views
