I have a lot, many that I read and re-read again and again, the Discworld Novels, especially the Nightwatch ones, The Rings Trilogy and the Hobbit, the Silmarillian, the Chronicles of Prydain, The Chronicles of Narnia, The Zanth series, the Myth Novels and the Phule novels, Hitchhikers Guide, The Harry Potter series and oh so many others, I love to read.

I literally have hundreds of books. I am currently organizing and writing down all of them to prevent getting anymore doubles! I really like the "Swords" books by Fred Saberhagen.

2] Azure Bonds by Jeff and Kate Grubb

I must not be like most people, as those are familiar to me.

I really enjoy Terry Brooks's 'Shannara' series. The original trilogy is great, but I haven't read it in many years(I have to pick up The Elfstones Of Shannara before I read it again).

Azure Bonds was a great book, and they made a computer game based off it(you didn't play as Ariel, but you met with her during the game). It was the first book of a trilogy, The Wyvern's Spur and Song of the Saurials were the second and third respectively.

I have also read a couple of Ann Rice's books. Good stuff!

Love the Shannara series, read them all and his Magic Kingdom for sale series as well. Loved the Dragonriders of Pern series, for that matter all of pern, but my favorites were the Dragon Harper books. I really loved the Elven Airship, the Disappearing Dwarf, and The Stone Giants, by Blaylock. The Borribles triology by Larabetti and the Redwall books, which are just wonderful. I read a lot of classics as well.

The Magic Kingdom: For Sale! series is an enjoyable one, as is the entire "Myth" series by Robert Asprin.

Another series I enjoy(and have to dig out of storage in my spare room so I can read it all over again) is the 'Guardians Of The Flame' by Joel Rosenberg. One of my favourites by far!

I own a few of Katherine Kerr's books but I haven't read them yet. I am missing one or two, and I would prefer to get the entire series before reading them.

I love getting my books either from a used book store(there are two of them in my city) or from the thrift shops!

Ack! You are quite correct that her name was Alias, not Ariel. I honestly don't know why I made that error.

Enjoying good books and hockey are just two of my wonderful qualities. LOL!

I don't suppose you enjoy working on jigsaw puzzles, do you?
