    <3 fantasy - to read it, to play the games etc :) (Though, I traded WoW time for gym time - to much success)

    I wasted far too much of my life on EverQuest, Dark Ages of Camelot, WoW (I always played gnomes or halflings) and the like to do the gaming thing anymore, but I do love a good fantasy book.

    Robin Hobb and George RR Martin are my favourite authors. Do have a soft spot for the old Dragonlance books too though.

    I have all of Terry Goodkind's Sword Of Truth series, which for the majority are excellent. Omen Machine was a bit of a let down though.
    Also, the TV series is a complete abortion.

    Anyone read any of Janny Wurts' books? Cycle of Fire trilogy was demolished by me in a matter of hours :)

    I could see how it would be a fun series if you had never read the books. I did watch it, but had to temporarily forget about the books while I did so.

    High fantasy is my favourite book genre~
    The Nightrunner Series and The Dark is Rising Sequence are two of my favourite book series. The first is about two elf fellas and their spying shenanigans while the second is basically the original Harry Potter, except Arthurian inspired.

    Love watching Dr. Who, Torchwood, any kind of fantasy & science fiction ..... my husband just shakes his head, but he's gotten hooked on some of this stuff too :laugh:

    And right now I'm reading book #3 of Bakkian Chronicles ("Amulet of Aria") by Jeffrey Poole ........ a young couple inherits a mansion & discover a portal to another world populated with kings & queens, castles, dragons, dwarves, wizards, trolls, etc

    LOVE THIS STUFF :drinker:

    I don't think I could live without my Terry Pratchett novels. Although I like fantasy quite a lot, these make me laugh out loud while reading.

    RA Salvatore :)

    And the artwork has always been my favorite, especially anything Boris Vallejo As well as his wife Julie Bell. Both Boris and Julie do body building too. Look them up, they are in fabulous shape. Julie is very attractive and many of Boris's drawings are modeled after her, Julie has done a lot of work for Marvel. They work in oil mostly... Just amazing stuff. This is Boris's work.

    , and Luis Royo :) all excellent works. I've been fascinated by them since the age of 10 when I started drawing.
