Re: Does anybody recommend Donaldson?

Oh.

It's been about a decade since I read the books - my memory is not really very sharp. I do recommend it though - it did a lot of things which were rather brave and unusual in fantasy at the time, it has a darkness to it that is still fairly rare and the Land is a very powerful conception.

It's basically about a man who has to be the champion and hero of a world he cannot really bring himself to believe in. Cool huh.

Among our regular members, Dwndrgn, Foxbat and Littlemissattitude have all read and enjoyed the series - with any luck, the invocation of their names will make them stop by and tell you more.

Cheers.
