Hi all,

I'm new here so I thought I'd do a little intro.

I'm a big Tad Williams fan. I have read MS&T, currently reading The War of the Flowers.
However, the first time I started to read MS&T about 2 years I could not get into it. I got up to the first 60 pages and found in way to descriptiveand put it down. However a recently I picked it up again and attempted to read it. I got so into the book it didnt leave my side for weeks. I one problem came to tGAT. I have it in Hard back and it's in one book! I had to heave that around for a while! Got nice toned arms now though! Hehehe. I cursed myself for not reading it the first time!

Anywho, I'd like to get to know some more TW fans and chat so....Here I am....Hope to hear from you soon!

It's good to meet you, Earrinde.

Y'know, I'd forgotten that I put The Dragonbone Chair down the first time I read it. It wasn't until a couple weeks later that I picked it back up and got past the first 100 pages that I really began to get into it. Whenever I've suggested it to anyone, I always tell them to give it 100 pages before they make a decision. Kind of strange how it's not at all the same reading them again... speaking of, I really need to do a reread. ________________

My mum told me the same thing 'get past the first 100 pages and you'll be well into it!'

I'd love to re-read it agin but there is sooooo much I want to read! Plus I have my exams in June!!!!!! I keep on putting study books down to read other books, I'm sure it should be the other way round

Have you read any other of TW's books? What other sort of books are you into?

Hey Earrinde - glad you are here!!!

I took a little while to get past the beginning also, but after that - I think I read the last 3 in the time I read the first one!!!

keep on posting regarding Williams - we look forward new & fresh ideas!!!

As for what we all are into - take a look at the main index & the author sections to get an idea!!!!!

Ask Danlo - he'll have you reading Zindell in no time!!!!
