Default Re: OT...great books

How could I forget Katherine Kerr's Deverry series?!?! A truly epic adventure that is neither cliche nor boring and in which the mythology isn't just background, it truly integrates with the story.

Read it or no-one will be angry with you.

Why, yes, that statement does make sense.

And I just finished a book called 'Lord Darcy', a bunch of short stories written by Randall Garrett, now dead and compiled and edited by Eric Flint. Has a Sherlock Holmes feel, with some humor. Very good. Kept me up 2:30 hours more than normal. Finished the rest the next day.

* Humor example: Naming the head of the sorcerer's guide 'Gandolphus Gray'.
