Have any of you ever read this guys books? My friend Ryan has started reading them but he clams up when he's reading. They look good but I want to here some good things before I buy one.

Hmmmm......Its been a while since I read these books. I read them a couple times though. Guess I just like the epic quest novels where you follow the young hero from his naive childishness to his heroic destiny. Funny thing is I remember at the time I was looking for a new book to read, but had no clue what I wanted to read. I talked to this girl looking around in the sci-fi / fantasy section of the book store in a mall. Got to talking with her and she recommended these books. I really enjoyed the books and am very glad I ran into her. Never met her again, but the books were great. I always thought it was cool that the 3rd book is a little over 1600 pages long and split into two parts. I have yet to read any of his other books but thought about it several times.

Hummmmmm, interesting. Well with a promotion like that how can I refuse. I will most definetly give them a second look now. I heard of Williams for the first time when I read the 'thumbs up' he gave on John Marcoe's book 'The Eyes of God' before that I hardly even knew he existed. Thanks again Dave.

I have read a few of his books, yes it was about a year ago. i cannot remember the titles but they ae pretty good.
I would read the blurb or something just before you buy it to see if you are interested. I allways do this just to make sure its nothing dull and boring.

Thank You for taking thetime to read this x

The darkness will not Concor all. No matter how much darkness it the world there will allways be hope. Hope That tomorrow Paladine shall roam the land once again.
