Larian Studios Forums General Chat Chat (Anything) What are you reading?

it's quite too bad i can't speak French...but i'm not really into those kind of books aniway....i'm more a fantasy guy.....

sounds, intresting. I wish my French reading skills were up to, par, of, eh, a giraffe.

I read them in some pretty chaotic sequence, myself -- like Feet of Clay before Guards! Guards! and Wyrd Sisters well before I read Witches Abroad. No problem here, nosir. Each book can stand alone pretty well.

Someone said:



Is it Polgara the Sorceress or Belgarath the Sorcerer? The two books tell the same story, just from different views. Eddings is okay-ish, I suppose, but his books are terribly formulaic and repetitive.

ok. thanks ill reac this way and that way!

I am reading London - Edward Rutherford....ahhhh...London....makes me miss it all the more. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

yeah those were part of it....i meant the Chronicles of Belgarion (if that's the right translation)

Then I gess you mean 'The Belgariad' (De kronieken van Belgarion) that are the 5 first books followed by 'The Mallorean' (De kronieken van Mallorea). The books from Polgara and Belgarath are here in Belgium actually 4 Books . 2 from Belgarath and 2 from Polgara :S

I like the Eddings books . I still have to read the dreamers-series but I gess that wont be for any time in the near future.

The lasr book I finished is Harry Potter 5 . I already started with it months ago , when the english version was released but Never finished it till a few weeks ago <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/biggrin.gif" alt="" /> . I better waited for some more months so it didn't took so much time untill I could read book 6 :S . I hate non-finished stories.

yup that were the ones excactly.....loved it.....i'm also thinking about taking a rerun on the laws of magic books from terry goodkind....

errr.... i ... err..... i'm reading posts in the forum. plus some news in certain websites such as Adrenaline Vault, Gameguru, IGN (i miss Ivan Sulic) etc.

also i read a bit of the bible every day.

yeah, boring as heck. i need a good book to read. maybe i'll go over Catch-22 again. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/tongue.gif" alt="" />

'Thief of Time' by Terry Pratchett. A relatively new one. (about 2 years old)
Been reading it for about a year now. (I read off and on very slowly <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/stupid.gif" alt="" />)

I actually find it helps to read the books in some sort of order. The witches series for example.

Reaper Man, Gua rds! Guards! and The Hogfather gotten today <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/winkwink.gif" alt="" />

Cheers! Hope they'll entertain you as much as they did me.

I'm not reading anything at the moment, but here are a few books i have enjoyed:

the outsiders
The Greatest Miracle in the World
wiseguy

so many terry pratchett's fans here in this forum. maybe larian can have another collaboration with her in future projects (especially one that sounds like x). <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/think.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/up.gif" alt="" />

@ Barta

French literature has given the world some realy diamonds over the centuries. I wish all french books could be translated in Greek.

At the moment I am reading Scared stiff - Ramsey Campel

PTerry is a he. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/tongue.gif" alt="" />

Anywho, there was a Discworld adventure game. It's very old, I think, and I have never been able to get my hand on it. A Discworld RPG would rock the hitzouse, though.

Ive taken a holiday from Fantasy. I just finished "Not a Penny More, Not a Penny Less" and "Shall We Tell The President" by Jefrey Archer. The good Lords polictal indiscretions aside (Which I dont personally give a stuff about) the man tells a good tale.

Apart from that I bought the boxed set of the Icewind Dale Trilogy by R.A.Salvatore. I havent read it in many years and look forward too it.

a writer that i can recommend is Maggie Furey...

*winces slightly at the mention of the Drizzt novels*

I'm a bit burned out on fantasy, too. Which is why I'm reading the Dune series and tapping into Star Wars novels.

from fantasy to sci-fi.....i dont believe the difference is very big...
