This is the entirety of my reading backlogged, as it currently stands. At least half of the books will likely never be read, as they’re either books I picked up at random at the UBS, or are romance authors whose books have been waiting for ages, but whose stuff I probably won’t like as much now as I did a few years ago.

In theory, I will keep this updated. In theory.

This doesn’t include anything I’ve read but not posted on yet.

Wow. That's a list almost as long as my own!

You have Jennifer Roberson on it too. I haven't been able to find anyone else who's read any of her books. I really enjoyed the Chronicles of the Cheysuli

OMG, I loved the Cheysuli books as a teen! I've never met anyone else who's even heard of them. Epic dynasty fantasy ftw!

I owned them all but sort of grew out of the Cheysuli ones (have you seen that she has a dog kennel now which she named after the Cheysuli books?). I still love her Sword Dancer series of books, though.

I haven't actually read the Sword Dancer books. Haven't come across them in the bookstores :(

^^ - I am so old that I bought them when they came out, so I didn't have that problem (except that buying import English books was darn expensive at the time, not having internet ordering available).

Hey I'm almost old enough to remember them. I remember the last few coming out. I just hate paying so much money for books that I buy most of mine from the second hand store

We just don't have those for English books... come to think of it we don't have used book stores as such, only for very old or expensive books. A paperback wouldn't normally show up there, ... maybe if it was from the fifties or something.

I know they were great weren't they. I picked Shapechangers up at a second hand book store and then acquired the others over a couple of years. Such a great series. I'm particularly fond of A Tapestry of Lions

Was she the one who wrote Lady of the Forest, about Marian from Robin Hood?

Date: 2009-01-27 02:17 am (UTC)

Yup that's her. There's two books in that series Lady of the Forest and Lady of Sherwood

She wrote a lot of short stories for MZB when she was doing S&S anthologies. I remember really liking her stuff.

Two thoughts sprang to mind:

1. Wow, that puts my big drawer under the bed filled with TBRs in perspective, I'm nowhere there yet. I would have to fill my other three drawers to get that far. There are probably only 50 books in there.

2. No P.C. Hogell? T.T

Yay ^^. This month BAEN rereleased her first two novels as an omnibus in harcover and trade paperback (or there are all the available novels in ebook on the ebook site of BAEN's): They're calling the new edition "The Godstalker Chronicles".

My copy arrived yesterday, so they're definitely available in the US.

I think I'm going to use some of your list for for suggestions of new stuff to read!

I really think you should get around to reading Good Omens and Jonathan Strange and Mr. Norrell. I love them. :D

I have no idea whether my list would actually be longer than this. Quite possibly.

One note about AnotherHOLiC, the author is NISIOISIN. :)

Good Omens
Politically Correct Holiday Stories (It's good for a brief laugh, anyway.)
All of the Tamora Pierce, but your collection is a bit awry. You have the first Alanna book, the second and fourth Kel books, the third and fourth Daine books, and both Alianne books. I personally recommend the Kel books especially, which start with First Test.

Possibly annoying comment of information you may already know: Michelle West and Michelle Sagara are the same person.

Good Omens is deeply amusing.

The Enchanted Forest Chronicles were my favorite books as a kid. I don't know how they stand up after time. Cute books with strong female characters. There isn't even a romance subplot in the first one.

The Handmaid's Tale is excellent and not a little disturbing.

Middlemarch is one of my all time favorite books. The characters are astonishingly complex, and they generally had such interesting (and varied) ideas that I found myself wishing they were real so I could engage them in discussions.

Wow, you have a lot of books! That is so awesome.

I started reading the Sagara books because I like her West books.

From: [identity profile] troubleinchina.livejournal.com
Ack, all the books, and so little time to read, I'm betting!

I'm trying so hard to do that "one book in, three books out" or some such nonsense to try and winnow down the books to ones I actually want to haul out of here, but it's so hard.

Wow. And here I'm feeling vaguely guilty for having two paperbacks on my shelves that I haven't read yet.

Neil Gaiman and Terry Pratchett: Good Omens

This one is definitely recommended... it does help if you have a vague familiarity with the Just William stories though.

Barbara Hambly: The Time of the Dark, The Walls of Air, The Armies of Daylight

I remember liking these when I read them, many years ago.

Diana Wynne Jones: Fire and Hemlock

I struggled through this one, but most people who aren't me seem to like it.

Michael Moorcock: Elric of Melnibone

I really must read some of the Elric stories one of these days.

J.K. Rowling: Harry Potter and the Sorcerer’s Stone, Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets, Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban

They're really rather average, but not without their good points. I've also read the fourth one, which had about as much story as each of the previous three, but spread much more thinly across the pages.

Alexander McCall Smith: The Number 1 Ladies' Detective Agency

I started that and really must get around to finishing it, because it's nicely written. He doesn't count as a Writer Of Colour though - I think he's actually Scottish.

Josephine Tey: The Franchise Affair, To Love and Be Wise, The Man in the Queue

The only one of hers I've read is The Daughter of Time, which was good.

Tad Williams: Stone of Farewell, To Green Angel Tower: part 1

I quite enjoyed all three (for varying values of "three") of the Memory, Sorrow and Thorn books.

Patricia C. Wrede: The Enchanted Forest Chronicles

I found her books enjoyable, but they're as difficult as to find hereabouts.

Jane Yolen: Dragon’s Blood

Read it, didn't like it; all those poor little dragons in search of an interesting story...

As for Writers Of Colour, a few I've read (or heard their books serialised on radio) are: Witi Ihimaera, Patricia Grace and Keri Hulme. Not sure if you'll be interested in any of their stuff but they're names to look for anyway.

Omg, every time I look at your journal my TBR list grow exponentially. Exponentially I say!

I did, however, like Icefalcon's quest, Flesh and Spirit, Breath and Spirit, and the Gilded Chain.

They were solid and enjoyable.
