city of dragons character help

[Farseer]

My son is 8 and is way into Harry Potter, Eragon and LOTR, so I'm just dying to be able to hand him the Farseer trilogy. It will be a few years, yet, but I've been telling him all about the dragons (no fire, just poison), the different types of magic, etc...just priming the pump, so to speak!

Prime away! They're never too young! My daughter (10) loves Fitz already.

I know I've harped on about the books here lots of times before but give him Emily Rodda's Deltora Quest series to read. It would be considered a younger read than books such as HP, E and especially LotR but I have long loved it and so have my three offspring. He may too. There’s even a dragon named Veritas (or something Verity-y) in there somewhere in the second or third series! A good series to put young ones on the road to loving RotE stuff.

Queenslander... now there's the problem. Let me just get a spanner and fix that for you.

Just what we need here in thePlenty…a cockroach! If only I’d known, reecem27, I’d never have been so welcoming!

We had a discussion on friends over in the Newsgroup not that long ago – as in, ‘Who could you not have as a friend?’ Some said that they couldn’t ever be friends with a smoker or a bully or, as most of us said, a truly ‘mean’ person who ridiculed/hurt others deliberately (I think you'd all know the type). As well as the latter, I was also going to say that I could just never be friends with someone from New South Wales!

Oh, wait... I'm sure the blues will do that in a few weeks.

Pft! I only have one thing to say…six in a row.

I have no probs getting off topic, but the tights/leggings debate was detracting from my question about Malta

Given how I feel about Malta, I think I’d rather talk about leggings (or even soccer or fungus or belly button fluff) rather than her! Okay…that’s not quite true…I have come over to the dark side with the majority of you and think that maybe she’s not *so* bad now after all. She WAS a fair dinkum little cow who needed a good slapping though, and it’s good to know that Reyn is happy to remind her of it!

- who I'm sure would look smokin' in leggings.

Back in LST, I’d rather have seen her smokin’ on a pyre!

You'll see me around here more often I'd say...

Oh, no! Say it isn’t so! I wonder what Mervi would say if she came back and saw:
