Really :P...No. Don't bother with "The Last Battle". Really :P <BR/><BR/>"Pyramids" on the other hand I quite like.<BR/><BR/>I've never read any Tamora Pierce but I'm beginning to think I should. <BR/><BR/>Eddings I gave up on without a serious attempt at re-reading, too repetitive for me.mimbleshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10907569024689875694noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22696356.post-11830621156114970142008-08-15T07:56:00.000+10:002008-08-15T07:56:00.000+10:00Tamora Pierce's multiple series - Song of the Lion...Tamora Pierce's multiple series - Song of the Lioness, Immortals, Protector of the Small, Trickster's Couplet, Provost's Dog, Circle of Magic and The Circle Opens. I started reading these when I was 11 and she's still writing! I recently introduced Luke to them and he really enjoyed reading the lot.<BR/>They have such a strong female self-worth message which was really important to me as a teenager.<BR/><BR/>David Eddings is another writer I will occasionally reread the entire series although as I get older it is loosing its appeal. <BR/>Strange that a writer such as Tamora Pierce who writes for young adults is still valid for me but one who writes for grownups is not.aussiehenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12981185912020988308noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22696356.post-54117050945104043782008-08-15T00:47:00.000+10:002008-08-15T00:47:00.000+10:00I am so NOT the fast reader. I only get something ...I am so NOT the fast reader. I only get something new out of a book years later. But one day I hope I will manage to read The Last Battle. I was put in mind of it when Leisel Jones was talking about her training regime that resulted in her throwing up in her garden, and I thought "If she can do that, I can read The Last Battle".<BR/><BR/>Or maybe I can just read "Pyramids" again... :)Arianehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17977679825245376111noreply@blogger.com
