Hey guys,

Just wondering if you all can recommend some good fantasy books to read. Cant really stand Terry Patchet's book thou.. Can't swallow his books down.

CHRISTOPHER PAOLINI - Author for the books mentioned below
I just finished 2 books of the Inheritance trillogy. The first book is Eragon and the second one is Eldest (currently two books only..). Basically its like Star Wars mix with LOTR. Yup, this is the book for the latest selling movie. Personally, i have not seen the movie but im going tomorrow! tongue.gif Wanna know more of the first movie and whats going to happen next, i guess this is the series to pick up!

Personally, i find this book better than any of the LOTR books out there. For a book which is set in a magical fantasy world, LOTR just does not have any magic in it.. Literally.. Inheritance has more magic, elves, dwarfs, humans and heck, they even have dragons.

The characters here are woven intriguely together in the first book and expends more into the second book. The hero, with supporting characters which help him along the way are secretive and enough about them is spilt here and there as the events progresses. From the discovery that the hero was special, to his running away, to his battle, to his education as someone special, this book really kept me hooked to it all the way to 4am in the morning! tongue.gif tongue.gif tongue.gif
