Not that I need more books, but can anyone offer up opinion on Sara Douglass's Wayfarer books, Jacqueline Carey's Kushiel books, Brian Sanderson's Mistborn books, or Elizabeth Hayden's Symphony of Ages books?  (Yes, I know those aren't the official titles for some...)

I found the Kushiel books good but you have to have a high tolerance for porn. I decided the first trilogy sounded too smutty for me and skipped to the last three, which I found intriguing. But the first trilogy focuses more on female protaganists.

(Sorry, I don't think I even formally de-lurked on your lj, even though I commented before, so I apologize if I'm being repetitive. Anyway, I found you via friends' friends. :) )

Hi! I'm used to lurkers! But yeah, I'm pretty sure I've seen you before.

I think I actually picked up the first Kushiel book on a whim a while back, but I'm not sure where it is.

The idea of it totally had me hooked that I bought the first 3 books straight away, but Douglass totally failed to deliver and it just bored me, and involved WAY too much convoluted incest!

that's what I did as well. I saw them at the used bookstore, figured I loved the blurb and picked them up. ;-; my brain rather regrets this decision (so does my bookshelf since it took me two years to figure out I'd never read them and they took up an awful lot of space).
