Can't recommend that one enough. The Element of Fire and City of Bones are also excellent.scribblerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00951910532615257666noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5711195880526876235.post-48866454366983738562012-03-13T12:24:34.888-04:002012-03-13T12:24:34.888-04:00"being green for no reason" is my new fa..."being green for no reason" is my new favourite phrase!

I only fault her for not writing enough! More, more, more. I am really looking forward to her third book in the Raksura series, but we have to wait until 2013. She also just finished a section on her website dedicated to the three worlds in the books for us fans.Evan Ramspott (The Author)https://www.blogger.com/profile/06682893566157637959noreply@blogger.com
