The Eyes of the Dragon 337 reviews Stephen King
Signet, 1987
My favorite King Book
+ A great fantasy tale, but .... + Eyes of the Dragon
Ok, so I am a huge Stephen King fan, and I do like most of his books, but there are a few I absolutely loathe. When I first read this book, I had no idea what to expect, and I ended up getting hooked to the story, and read it all the way through in one sitting, which is extremely unusual for me; ...

The Lord of the Rings. 3 Vol. Set 1002 reviews J.R.R. Tolkien
Houghton Mifflin, 2003
Lord of the Rings Book Review
+ Amazing trilogy + Great book, great illustrations, great buy!
Hello there,
I am about half-way through the first book of the Lord of the Rings trilogy and I am loving it. I am amazed at how Tolkien is so descriptive in his writing and puts so much thought to it. The first one-hundred pages are a little rough, but after that it is impossible to put the ...

A Game of Thrones (A Song of Ice and Fire, Book 1) 1512 reviews George R.R. Martin
Spectra, 1997
Absolutely among the best I've read. Edgy stage-setting adventure creates an intriguingly cruel world
+ Brilliant start of a great series + A great start to a great series
This book was recommended by a friend. I have since recommended it (and the series) to anyone with a bend for fantasy, fiction, political scheming, and/or adventure. Buy it, read it, then spread it. You will not be disappointed...unless of course adult themes and content offend you.

Jonathan Strange & Mr Norrell: A Novel 728 reviews Susanna Clarke
Tor Books, 2006
Instant Classic
+ Wonderfully Clever Book + The Line Between the Mystical and the Physical
This evocative tale of English magicians who become associates and eventual rivals/enemies is one of the most impressive literary debut-novels in any genre, ever. Every atmospheric detail is rich and crucial; there is nothing that is not essential to this mesmerizing, often frightening tale. ...

Timeline 1782 reviews Michael Crichton
Ballantine Books, 2000
Amazing Techno-Thriller
+ Time to Sleep? Nah.
Just my cup of tea! A mixture of science, history, and the underlying social ramifications - if time travel becomes a reality. No fluff, no extraneous drawn out descriptions, just right into the action. Crichton, with his medical and science background infuses a sense of reality into his stories. ...
