You only read books on kindle? I am disappoint.

I'm in a honeymoon period since I just got my Kindle today, however, the fact is until I move into a bigger place I have no room for anymore books. So for right now, aside from WoT and Song of Ice and Fire, I'm trying to limit to my electronic library.

Sigh, I'm in the same boat. Most of my books are packed up in boxes that I'm using as a table! That doesn't keep me from buying even more books. Stupid second-hand deals!

I only have six books

[~Romanda~]

Vertex, you need more books.

I have an irrational fear of kindle, but it's not like I don't read pdf versions of books already. It's just more of a pain doing it with the blackberry or the comp than a kindle screen.

I bought another bookshelf that is waiting to be filled with second hand books. :<

Did you get Assassin's Apprentice? Or do I have to haunt you?

[Vertex]

Do I get to haunt too? I did suggest Robin Hobb first after all...

[Ekho]

I'm still strongly suggesting Patrick Rothfuss because his books are amazing.

Anybody read Raymond E. Feist's "Magician"? How is it?

[Vertex]

I didn't love it But then I'm no fan of Raymond E. Feist...his Riftwaring and such is just painful to me.

Incidentally, I seem to recall The Ranger's Apprentice series starting in much the same way, and it doesn't get pain full either.

They're fantasy, although I don't know how up your alley they are, but the "Black Company" novels by Glen Cook are among my favorites.
