I just finished the first book of The Blades of the Moonsea series ,Swordmage.Decent read in my opinion,though not the best from the author.Though it had some interesting lore and was still entertaining nevertheless!! On a scale of 1-10 , 10 being the best , I give it a 7. Hopefully,Richard Baker will pull off a better performance with the next book which follows this last effort,The Swordmage.

Cromyr, a novel. Man is it a hard one to get through. So many under developed characters it makes your head want to explode trying to keep up with who's who.

Been reading most of the Dragonlance books, and the Spellfire series. Years ago thou. Honestly, i havent read a book in 5 years or so Dragonlace series are weellknown and legendary, i suspect most of you know them. Spellfire is a tale of a young sorceress/druid/wild mage type of girl, wich posseses a very unique arcane power known as spellfire, its a wonderfull pair of books i highly recommend. I might try pick up these books about Elminster, as i never really learned much about this legendary wizard, and i love powerfull mages ^^

As Wizard says,The War of the Spider Queen is absolutely a fantastic read and a must for all FR readers.Especially those who love the drow!From beginning to end,this series keeps you wanting more.When reading this series there is not a moment that goes by where you will feel disenchanted at the least!! Very well written and character development is top notch.In this series you will definitely and easily get attached to the characters despite the evilness of the infamous drow.
I give this series a 10!! Anything Salvatore is involved with turns out great!!

Just finished reading the Sellswords trilogy. <3 <3 <3 Artemis. Working on like book 7 in Drizzt's series. Sellswords is awesome!! You get to see a side of both Artemis and Jarlaxle that you would never expect.Also,I'm glad Vaasa was one of the settings for these books.From Calishman to Vaasa and interjecting the damned shard,really cool.I really liked the swarf with the glassteel morningstars.That dude was a badass!!

Oh yeah Elric stealer of souls, and his sword Stormbringer. Micheal Moorcock books, those were excellent reads!
I just finished Siege of Darkness in the Drizzt series, gotta love the Battlehammer dwarves! Waitin for the next three in the series to come in the mail.

Havent read anything FR in a few weeks, currently re-reading the belgariad (David Eddings) because i read it when i was quite a bit younger and have forgotten quite a bit.
Good books though.. i think the last FR novel i read was Bloodwalk, i'm a big fan of the main character in that one.
