cool a dragonlance reader.. LIKE the trilogy of the 9 companions

I can see your favorite Dragonlance character is Raistlin. Mine is HUMA DRAGONBANE. Wow! The ending of the book made me so sad. :cry:

B)

I think i had a glimpse of the ending, I know huma sacrificed himself to prevent takhisis to enter the world, and his silver dragon fell in love with him knew the risk huma would undertake. :)

 

Yep i like raist, he may be a bit weak, but i like the way his mind work.. :)

Beauty Trilogy by Anne Rice, sobrang sensual, bordering porn. Haha, but it was a good read. Come to think of it, medyo mabilis ko ata natapos yung series eh.

i've been hearing a lot about this beauty trilogy by anne rice... i've been meaning to get a copy of it, but, sadly, to no avail... san pwede makabili???

Try the bookstore at Rockwell, the last time i looked they still have available copies. Or pwede rin manghiram ka na lang sa MTC pipol. Trust na lang between members. :D :D :D

Pero fave book ko by Anne Rice is Memnoch the Devil. Ayus sa discussion. Basic question ni Memnoch is bakit daw may suffering sa mundo when God can get rid of it just by willing it. Philosophical.

When it comes to suffering … I am imagining a man named Job from the Old Testament. It’s like “If God is Good, why is there Evil?” :unsure:

Hey book lovers! I'm currently reading "What they don't teach you at harvard business school". It's a great book and tells you how to be a street smart businessman without having an MBA degree. The author (I forgot the name, sorry) even claims that after reading the book, you'll be beter informed than the MBA degree holders. And you know what's even better...?

:lol:

Dude, I saw that book at Bestseller bookstore at the Podium. What is it about? I think the genre is fantasy, right?

Yup, its more on Fantasy. Very good book, well difined yung characters and unlike other series di mo sigurado sino talaga yung mga main characters......

 

 

:)

 

What I mean is there are characters that are central to the story but dies off in the book. The story is quite realistic, if you wont mind the some mythical creatures. There are characters that seems to be the bad guy, but after reading throught the books, you would have an insight on the character and probably symphatized him.

 

 

Just read the book. if you like fantasy, knights in particular; you would enjoy this book.

I love knights! My favorite fantasy character of all time is Huma Dragonbane! Dude, wanna swap or trade fantasy books? I'm interested in the book you just recommended. Maybe we can borrow each other's books so we can save money for more books. :D

I wanna buy "1001 Orcs" by RA Salvatore. It's his newest trilogy.

necro, were u able to find my handle here? :)

 

ideal guy, nice idea, I wish i could borrow ur book about huma, want to read more about him, have u read the 5th age yet?

Dude, I promise you, you're gonna love "The Legend of Huma". If you're a dragonlance lover you absolutely have to read this book. A real classic. Anyway, I haven't read the 5th age yet. I haven't heard any reviews on those books. Call it weird, but I have a feeling that once I read about the 5th age, I'm going to miss the original characters. :( May closure na kasi sa "Dragons of Autumn Twilight". What do you think? Do you like the 5th age?

Btw, what other dragonlance or forgotten realms books do you have? I've a copy of the legend of Huma which I can lend.

hmm i have the trilogy of the 5th age where it all started, many of the characters from the original series are gone from the 5th age, among the only remaining characters from the original left are caramon, tika and laurana. Raistlin is constantly being mentioned since Palin, caramon's some was taking the test saw raistlin and he recieved the staff of magnus from raist. I have a couple, most of the books i read were on loan to me.. Like currently i have soulforge and brothers in arms on loan to me.
