It's a great series. I can't wait for the last novel to come out. I'm not a huge reading fan, but this series really caught my attention.

EDIT: Didn't realize it was already out. I'll swing by the store and pick up a copy tomorrow, then.

It's a pretty good series, regardless of the obvious plagiarism.

It's a cliche storm....but it's okay.

I'll read it eventually. Right now going on an epic quest to find Superior Saturday. Go Arthur!

Gah, finally out in the States. I've been sitting around here with no release information whatsoever and was already giving up hope on the third installment.

Now I either wait six months for an over-priced translated version, or two years for the original to pop up in the bookstores.

I probably won't read this thing. Usually I read and re-read books like this like there's no goddamn tommorow, but this long inbetween books for what's really only an okay story that I could simulate by trying to put the LOTR books in a blender with the Star Wars movies doesn't put it on my "A-book" list.

I made the mistake of seeing that movie first, and I'm not too interested in the book series now. Granted, dragons, damsels, and knights really never tripped my trigger anyhow... but still.

I once again, as I always will, curse you people for filling me with jealosy. I will probably have to wait for a few months before it hits the stores here in Sweden.

And yes, FastChapter, you certainly made a huge mistake.

Gah, never mention that horrible thing they call a "movie based on a book" again...

It was missing half of the whole story and the rest was just plain [insert semi-offensive word here]!

I couldn't agree with you any more. They even left out the Dwarves! Where they on a very low budget or something? Or just plain lazy?

I went to see the movie with my friends. It was pretty good.






And by that, it was pretty good at cracking us up. We had the most fun EVER making fun of it.

I didn't even know it was a novel series to begin with, :P Then again, I'm kind of glad I'm not a fan of the genre mainly for the mountains of bad literature being written about it. Terri Goodkind, that means you.
