    Jack Vances 'Planet of adventure' if you are a sci-fi and fantasy fan. Jack Vance is incredible when it comes to creating new worlds, he really takes you there. I'm so surprised that so little people know him.

    "Eye of the over lord and the last castle, the same author are good reading too.

    'Moving mars' By greg bear was interesting too. I also like 'Rogue Planet (Star wars book) by Greg bear.

    'Vector Prime,' Star wars NJO serie )By R a Salvator is a good fic too.

    For any who like crime fiction, I'd recommend George Pelecanos. He's written some scripts for The Wire, which everyone seems to be raving about. I started with 'King Suckerman', which is the second in a quartet, but is a nice dropping in point.

    ...figured you'd be a Raymond E. Feist fan from your name ...



    Anyway....recommendations....

    If you like Frank Herberts "Dune" series of books, I can recommend the "Legends of Dune" trilogy by Brian Herbert and Kevin J. Anderson:

    "Butlerian Jihad"
    "The Machine Crusades"
    "The Battle of Corrin".

    Also, by the same two authors, "House Corrino", "House Harkonnen", "House Atreides", which are like prequels to "Dune".

    Everyone should read Cryptonomicon by Neal Stephenson, if you haven't already. Absolutely brilliant piece of writing.
