While it's true that this is probably one of the most read books of all time... I'm still young, and it's my first time going through it. It's a fairly easy read, so I recommend it to people who are interested in starting a novel, and don't have too much experience with much else.

Brings the humanity into fantasy, something which I think is severely lacking in this day and age. Oh and cheers to the guy who recommended Orson Scott Card's Shadow series. That one was brilliant. you should read steven erikson too then (the guy who is quoted on the front cover of that!) | ||

It was recommended by a friend a few months back and I finally decided to pick it up. (Punny?) So far it's ok, I like some parts that I can relate to, but others seem like rambling. | ||

I hadn't read anything the last couple of years because I didn't have time. I picked up Under the Dome by Stephen King knowing absolutely nothing about it, just because he's one of my favorite authors and I have some free time. I've read about a third and it is absolutely amazingly awesome and epic for a story that takes place in a small town. | ||

The whole saga. I needed something huge enough to withstand my abality to finish books in no time. I guess these books can have their fans. The authors knows her job, the only thing i have against her story is that i really dislike the main character, which is slightly annoying when you've got 6 books of 500 pages to read. It is worth a try, especially if you like robin hobb's novels. | ||

(In Spanish). Reading it for the 3rd time, hell yeah! Spanish as well, which sort of makes it confusing at times and at first I thought it would be dull, but as I read it, it came very strongly and interestingly. (In english) The inferno part, it's a nice read, at the very least for the way it's written. Uh that's just a random image by the way, I'm reading Charles Norton's translation. | ||

I'm currently warming up with Four Past Midnight. Also, how are you a defiler with 70 posts? If you don't mind me asking. Edit: Nevermind, your post history in your profile cleared it up. I love that feature. | ||
