Books I think everyone should read

[sharpdressedscot]

Great thread, by the way.

Some of favorites have already been mentioned, so I won't re-list them.

Silmarillion by JRR Tolkien & Christopher Tolkien

The Camulod Chronicles by Jack Whyte
1. The Skystone
2. The Singing Sword
3. The Eagles Brood
4. The Fort at the Rivers Bend
5. The Saxon Shore
6. The Sorcerer
(He also wrote Uther & The Lance Thrower, but these 1st 6 are best. They are all half fiction.)

Enjoy

I'm reading those Camulod Chronicles right now, I have to say they're my favorite series thus far. I can't believe I forgot this series.

I finished Fort at the River's Bend, I'm going to the get Sorceror next when I get the chance. They're really good.

You sound like you enjoy them as much as I do. You'll probably want to read Uther.. it will answer the big mystery in book 3. Uther is a 3rd person narrative, which differs from the previous books.

"THE mystery?" Darn, I've been trying to figure out who it was, I'm going book hunting this weekend.

If you love a good victornian detective story along the lines of Sherlock Holmes check out the novels by Will Thomas. Good stuff!
