Re: Aren't you an old fashioned boy. *NM* Danae al'Thor Send a noteboard - 06/09/2009 03:38:29 PM
I'm not really embarrassed about Dragonlance, Eddings, Feist and other formulaic fantasy series - just because they're not really of much literary value doesn't mean I can't enjoy them, although last time I reread Elenium and Tamuli (yes, yes, I know, they're even less respected than the Belgariad and Mallorean...) I was rather shocked by the amounts of casual and completely unrepentant violence perpetrated by the protagonists. Somehow that hadn't really registered before.

Other than Twilight, yeah, Dan Brown's books, and the occasional chick lit book.
