Did you get any Fantasy books for Christmas?
I got The Runelords parts 1,2, and 3. I also got The Princess Bride in a nice hard cover from my husband. My mom got me The Chronicles of Narnia because she had heard me mention it but I already have it. I didn't have the heart to tell her. Just wondering if anyone got something they had been wanting.

Got it early (about 3 weeks ago) and opened it 'cause I was a bit excited: the Meisha Merlin hardback of the Game of Thrones. Signed by GRRM himself, and has about 100 line drawings throughout drawn specifically for the book.
Happy, happy, happy....:D |
Wit'ch Star by James Clemens (looking forward to finishing the series) and Requiem for the Sun by Elizabeth Haydon.
I would love to have a signed edition of Game of Thrones, but it has to be one that I've gotten the author to sign in person. Someday I hope to put a signed copy up next to my signed Eye of the World and Scions of Shannara. |
The Runelords part 1 - present from the Bulgarian publisher...
|
I got this cute book about 'pressed fairies' -- it's a wee tale about a girl who sees fairies and traps them in her book instead of roses. It's sweet and wonderfully inllustrated.
|
Talon of a Silverhawk, signed by Feist.
I'm hoping Martin and Jordan will visit Perth soon. |
-First book of Dave Duncan's "a Handful of Men" series
-Memories of Ice by Steven Erikson -Chronicles of Thomas Covenant, three-in-one volume |
I didn't get any books under the tree, but I did get some bookstore giftcards. One giftcard has been converted into a nice hardback edition of The Hobbit that I've been wanting for my collection.
Someone also got me a B&N's membership card where you get 10% off of purchases. I guess I can't complain, but couldn't B&N given a 20% discount? |
I got The Dragon Prince written by Melanie Rawn
Haven't read it yet, Is it any good? |
No fantasy books for me. :(
People don't dare to buy books for me, for they never know what I already have . . . so I get all the things I definitely need but never buy and order my books on my own. :) |
I got Perdido Street Station which I hope is as good as everyone has been saying. I aslo got The Crystal Cave and The Hollow Hills by Mary Stewart.
|
I was lucky enough to get paperback copies of Stardust and American Gods by Neil Gaiman and the Gormenghast trilogy by Mervyn Peake. Now just to fine time to read! :p I've read the first two before so they're not so pressing, but very cool to have.
|
I received a few fantasy novels...
China Mieville - The Scar Guy Gavriel Kay - Lord of Emperors Juliet McKenna - Thief's Gamble and The Assassin's Edge Carol Berg - Restoration Orson Scott Card - Children of the Mind and Xenocide |
