There's a certain four letter word I never, ever use because I find it terribly obscene and offensive towards women, but I call her that word in my head all the time.

Oh yeah, what trilogy?

[hornrimmed.livejournal.com]

Well, it definitely suits her.

Sabriel, Lirael, and Abhorsen. They're classified as young adult, I think, but still good reads.

[deep-red-bells.livejournal.com]

It so does.

I've read those! They're really good!

[hornrimmed.livejournal.com]

We seem to have very similar tastes, then. I've read them before, but I'm reluctant to put them down again.

[deep-red-bells.livejournal.com]

We do, it's kind of awesome.

Have you read the Vlad Taltos books?

[hornrimmed.livejournal.com]

No, I haven't, though obviously I should if you like them.

[deep-red-bells.livejournal.com]

They're really good. I love the writer's sense of humor. Pick up The Book of Jhereg (http://www.amazon.com/Book-Jhereg-Vlad-Taltos/dp/0441006159), it's the first three books of the series in one volume. You won't regret it, I promise, though keep in mind it's a very long, continuing anthology. But they're easy reads, they go quick.

If you're into irreverent humor you might enjoy Sir Apropos of Nothing and its sequels, The Woad to Wuin and Tong Lashing. Apropos is the epitome of the anti-hero. They're very interesting books.

Have them written down, will definitely check them out. The titles themselves make me giggle.

[hornrimmed.livejournal.com]

It was the titles that made me pick them up in the first place. I couldn't believe the horrendous puns. I just had to see if they were any good. I wasn't disappointed.

[deep-red-bells.livejournal.com]

That sounds exactly like something I would do. 'Oh dear Lord, that is so absurd, I must read it!'

[hornrimmed.livejournal.com]

Exactly! Its pull was irresistible.

[deep-red-bells.livejournal.com]

I will definitely check them out, I'll need books to occupy me until September, and all my other favorite authors are holding out on me.

[hornrimmed.livejournal.com]

Those damned authors, having to work at writing and not just making it appear.

[deep-red-bells.livejournal.com]

I KNOW! Don't they realize I need to be entertained!

[hornrimmed.livejournal.com]

Screw Copernicus. The world should revolve around you.

[deep-red-bells.livejournal.com]

Only if that gets me good reading material.

[hornrimmed.livejournal.com]

Of course. You'd have half a dozen of your favorite authors just sitting at your feet with laptops.

[deep-red-bells.livejournal.com]

Oh dear Lord.

[hornrimmed.livejournal.com]

An interesting thought, isn't it?

[deep-red-bells.livejournal.com]

I continue with the *LOL*ing.

[hornrimmed.livejournal.com]

And I only just noticed that that link you posted contained an excerpt.

[deep-red-bells.livejournal.com]

Does it? OMG IT DOES.

[hornrimmed.livejournal.com]

Yes. And about Tyrion nonetheless!

[deep-red-bells.livejournal.com]

Oh, I feel so incredibly teased.
