termninja 5,290 Posted June 8, 2011 Share Posted June 8, 2011 Reading is one of my hobbies and I really enjoy doing it. Forget all the movies and videogames, nothing beats the good old book sometimes. Reading has also helped me with my concentration and with the development of my writing skills. I'm about to start reading Andrzej sapkowski's "The Last Wish" from which The Witcher 1 and 2 games were made Anyway, I read a lot of books, but out of all of them, I have to place The Song of Ice and Fire book series as my favorite. I've never read anything better then that and I'd highly recommend it to anyone who likes fantasy, good story full of twists, but also a chance to experience the same events from different sides with different opinions.Book 1: A Game of Thrones (currently ongoing series on HBO, PM if you want to watch it )Book 2: A Clash of KingsBook 3: A Storm of SwordsBook 4: Feast for CrowsBook 5: A Dance with Dragons (release date july 17th)Book 6: The Winds of Winter (not released)Book 7: A Dream of Spring (not released) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My favorite fantasy series is by Melanie Rawn ... her Dragon Prince books (there are 6) and David Eddings books that start with Pawn of Prophecy. but my favorite is Jane Austen's "Pride and Prejudice", what can I say I am a romantic at heart!! I have also read most of Jeffery Archer's books, but "Cain and Abel" remains my favorite Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
