I found my book

May 28th, 2008

So I forgot to mention the other day that the book I was reading but mislaid has been found and I’ve started back in on it.

The book is Hidden Empire: Book One in the Saga of the Seven Suns and I’m about sixty pages in and it hasn’t stopped introducing new characters. It has a fantasy novel kind of feel to it, at least what I imagine a fantasy novel would be like. I’m not a big fantasy novel reader so I asked Tracey if it were normal for fantasy novels to spend such a long time introducing huge numbers of characters.

She told me sometimes.

Probably why I don’t read fantasy novels. The book is very well written and I’ve bought all six that have been released so I’ll definitely stick with it.

I think there’s another book coming or something - I’m not that far into the book to judge at this stage

Dude,
I don’t even think the next book will finish the series. It seems like one of those series that will just keep going until the author dies (eg: “The Wheel of Time” fantasy series).
I must admit though, it is a rather good series. I like the way that the author doesn’t mind killing off main characters… so all these new characters you are leanring now; don’t worry, they’ll be dead soon!

Adam - I can’t hear any of this!!!! I need to know that the end will come eventually

It is an enjoyable read so far so I don’t mind, really.

Killing off all these characters means only one thing though, he’s going to have to introduce more!!

*Sigh*
