I'm home! My interview took not even ten minutes. The hotel was very clean and classy but the room was tiny considering it's for two adults and a child usually (we of course had the cost adjusted for three adults), and man how expensive is food?!

The first book I read of his was recommended, and the second a girl from work owned but was going to give to a charity shop with a box of others.

I will! My trouble now is working out what to read first! I mean, I'd prefer to read books that standalone or that I already have other books in the series to first.

Bookstores suck! They are waaaay overpriced and never have anything I actually want. (Maybe if they lost the entire series of Twilight displays they could put out some more obscure authors...) XD

I'm going to echo what everyone's already said, i.e. that Guy Gavriel Kay's books are awesome. ♥
