Recommendations

Post by rdaniels »

I'm just starting to get back into reading as a hobby and I am looking for some recommendations on my next book. I just finished Robinson Crusoe and greatly enjoyed it. I have also read "The Hobbit" & "Lord of the Rings" the trilogy and enjoyed it also. So I guess I like adventure, fantasy, medieval settings, and so on. Any recommendations are welcomed.

thanks,
ryan

Have you read The Princess Bride, by William Goldman? It's part comedy, part adventure, part romance and part fairytale, and it's brilliant.

Also, The Age of the Five trilogy by Trudi Canavan is a fantasy series that was recommended me by a friend and that, simply, hooked me. I'd definitely give it a try.

I just finished reading a really good fantasy/adventure novel called The Crown Conspiracy by Michael J. Sullivan. It is part of a six book series the second of which is due out in April. It is a real page turner with a great plot and great characters, about two thieves that are framed for the murder of the king and have to survive while trying to convince the prince they are innocent.

And of course there is Harry Potter by J. K. Rowlings. But I am sure you've heard about that.
