First of all, not everyone at this site hates you. In fact, I imagine by far the majority don't. So stop stressing about that (or attention seeking, whichever). Just continue to make posts.

But please spell check them or at least read through them before you post to make sure they make sense.

Secondly: The Terrys

1. Terry Pratchett. As you mentioned, he's lovely and good. His books are very funny and very clever and definitely worth reading.

2. Terry Brooks. He's got three main series out there. The first is the Shannara Series, which is nice enough. There are some clever elements, there are some highly derivative elements, there are some really boring elements. They're not intellectual in any way either, but they're a good enough read.

His second series is the Magic Kingdom of Landover series, which is pretty neat. I like this quite a lot and think they're definitely worth a read.

Probably his least-known series would be the one set in our world, the first of which is Running with Demons. I was surprised that I enjoyed this series, and suggest you give it a try if you like the synopsis, which can be found using a lovely tool called google.


3. Terry Goodkind. Don't read them. They are a rip-off of almost every major fantasy writer out there, and they're also badly written. And they are full of the author's proselytising. But there are people who enjoy them, so I guess it takes all sorts.


As for the books you described above: those are the Pern books by Anne McCaffrey, and they are a joy and a delight. Enjoy them!
