No idea why I woke up one morning with the sudden urge to revisit these old childhood classics, but the charm and delight of them hasn't diminished any with the years.

Tad Williams - Memory, Sorrow and Thorne Series:

#84 The Dragonbone Chair
#85 The Stone of Farewell
#86 To Green Angel Tower: Siege

#87 Brian Sanderson - The Final Empire

I bought this out of curiosity, purely because Sanderson was given the contract to complete Jordan's Wheel of Time series and I wanted to find out if his writing style appealed to me. I enjoyed it, found it okay but not startling, but by the last few pages had become fond of the characters, so I'll be reading the rest.

One truly puzzling thing, though is why the hardback edition of book 3 costs £27+ on Amazon. Frankly, there's no way I'd pay that for a fantasy novel! And as the paperback edition, out this time in 2010 is averagely priced at £6+, I'm mystified as to why they think they can get away with it.

Okay, off to start the final book in TW's Memory, Sorrow and Thorn series, which I'm enjoying quite a lot.

Athos: If you'd told us what you were doing, we might have been able to plan this properly.
Aramis: Yes, sorry.
Athos: No, no, by all means, let's keep things suicidal.
