Welcome to Gaia! ::

Mercedes Lackey books were the first i ever picked up in the fantasy world. So i was a fresh newbie and even though now i read the books again and find them slightly basic, and lacking a little in imagination. Back then, they were the best thing to ever happen to me, opening my eyes to all sorts of places. Lackey pretty much gave me inspiration to keep on reading, now i'm a fantasy junkie. Always though i'll think of Mercedes Lackey as my being opened into the world of fantasy. My favourite series is still The Last Mage. Vanyel <3. My quote from him, which i'll always remember and quite frequently use is..
"Stop staring at the bark when the tree is about to fall on you."
It might have changed a little bit over the years since i've read it. But the theme is the same. So, anyway just giving my support to her.

eek You think she could downsize the sex scenes? sweatdrop They're barely even there! If you don't like that, then be sure never to read anything by Anne Bishop, hers are what I call intense. exclaim

Anyway, Merceds Lackey. She is my favorite female author, with Anne Bishop coming in a close second. I can really relate to her characters. The first book of hers I ever read was Wind of Fate. Needless to say, I was very, very confused. The Arrows Trilogy was actually one of the last valdemar books I read, so most of the time I was trying to piece together what had happened. I cry every time her characters die. I haven't read her Hundred Kingdoms but I have read most of her other books. My favorites are the Valdemar/Velgarth books. I also love the fact that her first book came out the year I was born. It makes me feel special. heart

I've enjoyed her valdemar books.

*Blink* She doesn't go into detail at all... you basically just know they DID have sex, and that's it

let's see. The first book I ever read by her was Brightly Burning and I had to call my best friend afterwards because I was bawling my eyes out and needed to rant a little. I like her Obsidian trilogy but I don't care for the continuation that just came out. My favorite is her dragon jouster series because it was different and refreshing.
I like the serrated edge too.
