Of course I'm going to do this instead of homework.

Naturally, I recognise the Terry Pratchett and nothing else... Book two is A Hat Full of Sky and number five is The Wee Free Men.

I was tempted to do all Pratchett, because I adore his turns of phrase.

I know number three is a David Eddings book. I'm thinking Belgariad as opposed to Mallorean. I could go upstairs and check, but not yet. I'm going to think about it some more...
And I'm wondering if Temeraire is number four? The first book by Naomi Novik? Gods, I'm crap at titles, lol.

In the ballpark with both of them, but I want titles :P

His Majesty's Dragon and Queen of Sorcery (which I admit I went to my own bookshelf for!)

Augh I think I know book three (maybe?), like I know what happens next-ish from the first line, but I'm not sure WHICH of them it is. Is it the one with Ce'Nedra getting all central and rally-y? Queen of something? (I really have issues with the distinction between the books, as I own the Belgariad in a two-volume anthology thing).

EDIT: Hell, late. Lol!
