The Father
Loves the Son
We've all stuggled with loss, and with The Father Loves the Son, Theo has allowed total strangers into his heart. It's not widely available, so I'll plug it for the guy. Buy a copy, in fact by two or three and give them away as presents. (Review) |
It
took me a number of years to get around to reading this one, and once
I started I couldn't stop. Mr. Helprin is a master story teller.
This was a close second. What a weird and wonderful adventure. John
Irving is one twisted writer. Loved this one.
One
of those big fat series that takes a familiar story, wrings it out a
little and puts a fresh slant on things. Lots of fun, and was way better
than I expected. 
This
is a really warm and charming series. I've had these on my shelves a
long time, and I'm glad I took the time to finally read them. Magical
stuff.
I like Tom Holt. He's funny. When he's funny he's really funny. This
one is more funny than his other funny books.
I
have yet to read a bad novel by this guy. Coyote is a page turner, and
a lot of fun. By no means a perfect book, but it was a lot of fun at
the time. 
Now
don't get on me for liking Eddings. I know it's light and all that,
but dang it, it was good fun. So there.
This
was a good series, and although it plodded a bit, and near the end of
the third book it was getting downright repetitive, it was still good
fun.
The
last two books to be published in a highly enjoyable series. It's a
real shame these never took off with the general public, as this was
some of the better fantasy I'd read in a while. Mr. Hood brought an
interesting perspective to a rather tired genre.
