- pugio 4y agoI've read and loved most of the fantasy you mentioned, except for saga of The forgotten warrior. This makes me an excellent target for that last recommendation, thank you!
- Pietertje 4y agoHow did you like the Wheel of Time? The size of the saga scares me a bit...
- crackedbassoon 4y agoIn my opinion, not worth it. There are much better and shorter fantasy series out there.
- kcartlidge 4y agoGood recommendations, but for other readers I'd strongly avoid the KJV Bible as the language isn't just archaic but on occasion even the meanings of words has changed in the intervening hundreds of years. At the very least go for the New King James (NKJV) if you like the language style, but otherwise something like the ESV or CEV will read better for the modern mind.
