Boarding the Enterprise
I enjoy this book because its like a bible of the 'inside information' on the specs and technical info about the Enterprise and the Federation. I enjoy writing fan-fiction, so this is a treasure chest of info.

The Misenchanted Sword: A Legend of Ethshar (Legends of Ethshar)

37 reviews
Lawrence Watt-Evans

Leisure/Wildside, 2008

One of the best fantasy books nobody's read.
This little gem is the sort of book that you pick up at the used bookstore with twenty other paperbacks, not expecting much, and then end up treasuring for years. Much modern fantasy relies on rather generic plot arcs and characterization that substitutes brutality for realism. Lawrence Watt-Evans falls into neither of those traps. The book starts with an apparently rather generic plot -- ...

The Summer Palace (Annals of the Chosen, Vol. 3)

A Thrilling Conclusion
When I finished reading The Ninth Talisman(Summer of 2007), I was enamored with the desire to learn the truth, but was shocked to learn I had a year to wait until The Summer Palace came out. So I waited impatiently, and ordered it as soon as possible. Having just finished it, I can honestly say that it was worth the wait. Lawrence Watt-Evans masterfully interweaves the characters, ...

The Spell of the Black Dagger (Legends of Ethshar)

Wildside Press, 2003

Another great Ethshar book!
Tabaea of Ethshar of the Sands has led a rather unfortunate life, and becoming a thief hasn't particularly helped. However, when she spies on a wizard teaching his apprentice how to make a magical dagger, she decides that magic is the life for her. When she makes her dagger, though, everything seems to go wrong, and the result is a seemingly ineffective black dagger. But, botched magic can have ...

So, you think you know Discworld?
So, you think you know Terry Pratchett's Discworld, do you? Even if you have read and re-read Pratchett's thirty-plus Discworld novels (and companion books), Lawrence Watt-Evans's "The Turtle Moves: Discworld's Story Unauthorized" will still teach you a new thing or two, I suspect -- new insights into characters, new ways of looking at the novels. Watt-Evans, a noted science fiction/fantasy ...

Del Rey, 1987

This is what Fantasy should be
When I read this book for the first time I was inspired. Finally an author had imbued originality into Fantasy. Many of the cliche plots needed in fantasy were missing, and to my amazement a character with very little promise or power became a hero. Here was a boy with the high hope of becoming a powerful mage, but after his teacher dies he is left with only one spell. The way the author ...

The Unwilling Warlord

Lawrence Watt-Evans

Wildside Press, 2003

One of the Authors Best!
This is one of my favorite of the Esthar books by Lawrence Watt-Evans. This is a well written story that exhibits much of the same humor and insight that make most of LWE's books a delight. In an Unwilling Warlord we get (as usual) a very unlikely hero. Before Sterren is an impossible task. He must win a war against multiple enemies, all of which larger then his kingdom. He must ...

The Unwilling Warlord: A Legend of Ethshar

Wildside Press, 2008

When the foreigners confronted Sterren in Ethshar of the Spices he was uneasy; when they all but abducted him, taking him to an obscure kingdom in the south, he knew he was in a terrible predicament. A predicament some might actually find appealing -- he was by heredity the Ninth Warlord of Semma, least of the small kingdoms; he was a noble, and his rank afforded him material privileges, even in a place as insignificant and obscure as Semma. ...

The Blood of a Dragon (Legends of Ethshar)

Wildside Press, 2003

Highly recommended!
Now that Dumery has reached his 12th birthday, it is time for him to be apprenticed. He's the third son of a wealthy merchant, which means that he inherits...nothing. He has only really been interested in one thing, wizardry, so he offers himself as an apprentice to every magic-user in Ethshar. When they all tell him that he is completely dead to magic, and as such untrainable, he feels crushed. ...

But, the King's first command sends Garth off to find and bring back a nightmare creature out of legend, and to get it Garth must overcome bandits, foul magic, greed and ...

THE SEVEN ALTARS OF DUSARRA (THE LORDS OF DUS)

LAWRENCE WATT-EVANS

GRAFTON BOOKS, 1987

The best book in an underrated series
This is the second of four books in the "Lords of Dus" series. A very under-appreciated fantasy series, in my opinion. While these books are neither as intricate nor as well written as many of the big names in fantasy, ("Lord of the Rings" for example) they are well thought out and very original stories with very memorable characters. Entertaining enough to be read several times, but ...

The freshest book I have read in awhile
Fun, Fun book about a simple case of mistaken identity between three royal children it is an excellent book to read if you into Terry P. Between boys being mistaken for girls and dragons being turned into sheep I can't remember the last time I laughed so hard while reading a book.
