Suggestions

Beaky might be the only one to answer but I was wondering if any of you could give me fantasy book suggestions. I don't know why but I'm a bit tired of reading so much SF, stories get repetitive after a while and since I barely have any fantasy I'd thought I'd give it a try. So...any good series out there

Unfortunately it's been a while since I read anything new. Eric recommends stuff to me all the time, but he hasn't mentioned anything extra interesting lately. The latest fantasy series I've been reading, I already recommended once, and I think you should definately think about getting it. G.R.R. Martin's Song of Ice and Fire series. The first book is called A Game of Thrones. It's mideival fantasy, and though the fantasy part is isn't as glaringly obvious at the beginning, there are dragons and other creatures eventually. Just don't get attached to any character, if you read it. :-P

It's great, though, I'm currently in the third book (there are four out so far), which I would've finished ages ago, but I'm just too busy for it right now. Beyond that, my roommate is a huge fan of a series called The Wheel of Time, by Robert Jordan. I haven't read it, but it's popular among fantasy fans. I recommend you go on Amazon.com, pick a fantasy book you know you like already, and then just click on the link to "people who bought this book also bought..." or the "recommendations" one and read the reviews and summeries.
