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'd agree with [livejournal.com profile] rachelmanija on Hayden's stuff, although there're some pretty interesting plot bits in the average high-fantasy world it's set in. Also, how obtuse the main characters were to each other actually made me throw the book against the wall, but at least I picked it up again and read voraciously until they figured out what I'd been mad at them for. XD Meh, perhaps not the greatest investment of money in the world, but I found them interesting when I'd nothing else to read.

Gack - obtuse to each other's feelings and thoughts, I skipped some words in there. XD Obtuse as in these-two-have-to-be-paired-up-to-save-the-world and all they do is get frustrated with each other. For about 600 pages. I wanted to hit those characters very, very badly.
