The Rogue - Trudi Canavan
You can definitely tell that this is a 'middle' book. A lot of the book is setting the story up for the final book in the series. I read this straight from the Ambassador's Mission ( Read more... ) -

My Granddad gave me and my sister copies of these when we were younger, and I really enjoyed it, and recently got the first through Bookmooch. This is a kid's book ( Read more... ) -

C.S. Lewis - Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe, Horse and His Boy, and Prince CaspianI'm sure I don't need to say what this is about! All my favourites when I was younger - as the new film was coming out I couldn't help but re-read them! The film was definitely disappointing compared to the book, I don't think ( Read more... )
