    I guess Bean's was better for me because it incorporated the rest of the jeesh characters into it. However I liked the "Jane" character later on in the Ender series. Hard choice really, but I'll go with Bean.

    In a couple years I hope to re-read the entire series as it should be read. (Enders game, Bean series, rest of Ender series)

    I’m a fantasy girl myself.

    R. A. Salvatore’s Forgotten Realms. Gotta love Drizzt Do'Urden!

    George R. R. Martin’s A Song of Ice and Fire. I’m super excited because the first of these books (A Game of Thrones) is coming out as an HBO series in April! Woohoo!!!

    I keep going back to the dragonlance series, I own about 60 books but the best ones are written by Margret Weiss and Tracy Hickman, but if you have never read any of them you have to read the first two trilogies starting with the Chronicles and then Legends. From there I'd recommend reading the two tales trilogies which are a bunch of shorter stories about parts of the first two trilogies written from a different perspective. From there it's up to you where you want to go. I've gotten as far as Dragons of a New age but the realm has drastically changed and not for the better.

    I've also been very particular with Issac Asimov one of my all time favorites is Robot Dreams

    I also like Dean Koonz and my favorite of his is Intensity(i could easily see a movie adaptation), followed by from the corner of his eye

    I used to read a ton of books but having kids and other interests kinda took over
    For a wounded man shall say to his assailant: if I live I will kill you, if I die you are forgiven Such is the rule of honor.
