What is a REALLY good book?


Question


What is a REALLY good book?
I love reading amp some of the books ive liked are


Answer


. The Silmarillion Dr. Tolkien called this his quotmost important workquot and spent most of his life working on it. The first section, when the characters are introduced and fleshed out has a bit of a history book feel do not let that stop you! The story is so touching that it twists your insides around and wrenches your heart out, and the language is just beautiful. It provides a much deeper understanding of the events and mythology in the Hobbit and Lord of the Rings. It is my favorite novel.brbr. J.R.R. Tolkien Boxed Set The Hobbit and The Lord of the Rings Top of its genre DUHbrbr. RiddleMaster Absolutely amazing characterisation. Very original and engaging story line. A slightly weak ending, but wonderful besides thatbrbr. The Chronicles of Narnia I reread these as an adult, and they are even better than they were as a child! I can not emphasize just how good these are! My favorite was the Last Battle!!brbr. A Wizard of Earthsea The Earthsea Cycle, Book and The Tombs of Atuan The Earthsea Cycle, Book were excellent! The Farthest Shore The Earthsea Cycle, Book is ok, but the ending is a real disappointment, and the others past that I recommend avoiding like the plague. Also, the SciFi Channel movie is TERRIBLE!brbr. Homeland The Dark Elf Trilogy, Part Forgotten Realms The Legend of Drizzt, Book I Bk. and Exile Part Forgotten Realms The Legend of Drizzt, Book II absolutely stunned me. Sojourn The Dark Elf Trilogy, Part Forgotten Realms The Legend of Drizzt, Book III, is much weaker. The other quot Drizztquot books are not even in the same class at all and get extremely repetative.brbr. The Riftwar Saga was exceptional most of the time. Great characters and story!! The biggest weakness was in the last two books where one character is made into a know it all for almost any problem. He doesnt destroy the books though. Highly recommended! Magician Apprentice Riftwar Saga and Magician Master Riftwar Saga, Book are absolutely amazing, Silverthorn Riftwar Saga, Volume is somewhat weak, and A Darkness at Sethanon Volume IV in the Riftwar Saga gives a nice strong ending.brbr. The Belgariad, Vol. Books Pawn of Prophecy, Queen of Sorcery, Magicians Gambit amp The Belgariad, Vol. Books amp Castle of Wizardry, Enchanters End Gameis an excellent series by David Eddings. I specifically recommend against reading any of his further series, as he tends to plagerize himself, using the same ideas and plot lines. As for these two books, they are very original and powerful the only weakness is that he seems to have a problem with writing women characters. They all are bad tempered and snippy and so forth. But it doesnt ruin the series.
