Hey guys, Im new here, (as you can tell). Anyways, I really enjoyed reading the door within triliagy and the Inharitance triliagy (Batson, Paolini). If any one has any recomendations for books like these, plz let me know. thanks.

The Dragonriders of Pern, Starwars, and The Lord of the Rings. Then you will fully appriciate the Inheritence Trilogy. From there you can start on others like Robert Jordan, Robin Hobb, David Gemmel, and Terry Pratchet.

You didn't give me much to go on, so I will just recomend my favourites (well some of which, since you probably don't like classics)

Robert Jordan's The Wheel of Time, starting with The Eye of the World

David Gemmel's Legend

Terry Pratchet's Truckers

Roger Zelazny's Amber starting with Nine Princes in Amber

Robert E. Howard's The Chronicles of Conan

Jacquline Carey's Kushiel's Dart

George R. R. Martin's A Game of Thrones.

You have too much there already; start with that and I will see you in a year. I hope you aren't young by the way, some of those books have graphic sexual content.

yea, the Inheritance triliagy is the apitamy of perfection in an adventure novel. I cant wait for the third one. But anyways, Im looking for books that are crammed full of action. Swords mainly, but like guns, them are goood too. As said before, I loved the Door Within book. And Im looking for books that are much like them. BTW im 16, looking for books that I can find in my high school library. But Ill see if any of the books above are available. Thanks for the recomendations man, I appreciate it.

The Inheritance Trilogy wasn't exactly my cup of tea....
Action fantasy- Try James Barclay's Raven Books, or Glen Cook's Black Company.
David Gemmell writes good action fantasy.
If you like action, try pulp fantasy- Robert Howard, Fritz Leiber, Karl Wagner, Edgar Burroughs, Leigh Brackett... etc. (Be warned the 5 I've just mentioned are all pretty old, so you may not find them in a library)

Also, check out the Recommendation Thread at the top.

John Marco - Tyrants and Kings i understand is one of the small number of fantasy books with guns in it. starts with "Jackal of Nar" and i saw it placed among "militaristic fantasy" sungenre. It's been on my To Be Read pile for more than two years.

For action oriented books I also liked Harry Turtledove - in particular "Videssos" cycle - about a first century roman legion teleported to a fantasy world.
