Recommended Authors & Books!This is a featured page

I have a huge collection of books, mainly from the fantasy genre harkening back to my young role play days. I have always loved literature and I am extremely vocal about sharing my favourites with others, I thought here would be a great place to share the many years of enjoyment I have had from my favourite authors and books…

Raymond E. Feist

Feist is for me at least the new father of the fantasy genre, comparable to Tolkien in the scale and depth of his work. His Midkemian works achieve a sense of time and epic nature that will draw you into a world that is familiar yet sensationally new. His writing is fluid, paced and exceptionally well written and yet he manages to leave just enough to the imagination that the characters become like ourselves, those we know or something we wish we could be.

I have several authors that I look up to and get inspired from. David Webber and Elizabeth Moon are my current favorites. However, all of this reading made me want to do it myself. So I did. I have self-published 7 books so far and am always working on another. You can check them out here... www.larrywmiller.com

It was going to be one book but it turned out to be too long. So he made it into three. The third book turned out to be too long, so he made it into four.

Three and Four have the same title except with 'part 1' and 'part 2'. It is exception writing and each book is 600+ pages. So it will take you quite a while to finish it. Although you will become so absorbed you'd be reading past midnight!!
:D

1. The Dragon Bone Chair
2. Stone of Farewell
3. To Green Angel Tower: Siege (also known as 'Part 1')
4. To Green Angel Tower: Storm (also known as 'Part 2')

Put these up immediately they are wonderful!!
