LOL I do still love Andre Norton, David Eddings (loved his Belgariad series), Anne McCaffrey, Tolkien, and so on. I read some Piers Anthony as well, but again I grew tired of waiting for the next book in a series. Oh, I almost forgot the Amber Chronicles. Those were wonderful, too!<br /><br />MarciMarci Baunhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01850775917897362922noreply@blogger.com
