[quote=@Penny] I own every book the Eddings' ever wrote. Belgarath the Sorcerer is great but for my money you just cant beat the Elenium. He really has his interpersonal banter down by then and he does a neat job of making the characters interesting even though the are essentially all Knights. Currently I am reading Ruins of the Galaxy by JN Chaney and Christopher Hopper. Frankly it is formulaic and had not impressed me thus far. [/quote] I own the first three books of the Belgariad along with Belgarath the Sorcerer and Polgara the Sorceress. I'll likely tear through all of his writing this year. Oh I forgot to mention I'm halfway done with the Conan the Barbarian Anthology. No wonder I love writing novellas. This year I plan on knocking that out very soon too since I finally have more time.
