Does anyone like the topic?

Fantasy Novels?
Fantasy Art, Music and so on?

I started about 2 years ago when I discovered pictures on the net by artists like Luis Royo and Boris vallejo. Then I started reading books and sort of got sucked in.
Then I saw Lord of the rings and that was it! Havn't been able to stop since.

If anyone likes fantasy I recommend the English writer Michael Moorcock. He does Amazing stuff.

tho i've been hooked on robert jordan's the wheel of time for some time now, awaiting each of his releases in the series. i believe he'll be writing a total of 15 books or something in the wheel of time series.

oohhh shit, fantasy kicks.
i remember when me and my firneds played some fantasy games that we made our selfs.

really nice worlds, figures, magic..everything, we created, and we just played all day & night long.

i read fantasy novels off and on... my favourite author is by far David Gemmell... he creates aleternate realities and has engrossing characters that you can relate to (depending on the person)... favourite books are Echoes of the Great Song and Sword in the Storm, both i read cover to cover in a few days, although 1 year apart... might grab another one soon to read while high...

i've also read some Forgotten Relms stuff, it's watered down compared to most books i read but the relation to Baldur's Gate (best Rpg of all time) had me hooked...

endless thanks for the info....I've been trying to figure out where to start for weeks now

No problem man. I hope you have as much of a wicked time reading them did and still do. The characters are just soooo well done and the entire world that is made is just unbelievable.
