"Elizebeth I, Queen of England" sounds like an interesting book. Did you enjoy it? Would you recommend it?

I asume you mean me? If so then... I like the first Dune (Can remember if it had a self tittle or not) Children Of Dune, and Dune Mesiah (sp?). Not exactly in that order. I have another Dune book, but I didn't care for it.

Dune Mesiah, eh? Didn't particularly care for that one too much. A bit weak compared to the others. I liked Dune, God Emperor of Dune, and Chapterhouse Dune.

Started Pygmalion by George Bernard Shaw. It's the original drama that the movie My Fair Lady is based on.

I have books about Norse mythology & Scandinavian history, Cambodian history and the Old Kingdom Trilogy, by Garth Nix.
The Old Kingdom trilogy is a dark fantasy series, and I've read it the first two in the series-I'm just refreshing myself so I can read the last book. If you can get your hands on it, I'd recommend it, though it could be considered as "teenage fiction". EDIT: This series consists of "Sabriel", "Lirael" & "Abhorsen", which I mention later in this thread. Last edited by Linaewen : 08-04-2003 at 07:48 AM. |

I just finished the first Dune book. Picked it up from the library, and then spent the day doing nothing but reading. :P I'm such a lazy bum.
