Ugh, I read the first book in translation and didn't like it much because it sounded like the translator was trying too hard to make it Tolkien-like, so I checked out the second book in English... It was a tragedy D: My mum, on the other hand, is completely enamoured with the thing :\ I much prefer the Temeraire series, as far as dragons go :)

Ohh, I think you'd love the Kushiel series! You should check it out (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kushiel%27s_Dart#The_World_of_Terre_D.27Ange) :D

*cheers you on* I have faith in your reading prowess! You can totally read all of them!

Yes yes yes! I was rooting for that ship too!

There's no gibberish in your comment, only awesome!
