"First, let me introduce you to yourself" (Beware RotE Spoilers)

[Maulkin's Tangle]

I haven't updating my readings of the other threads yet, so I'll say 'Welcome to the Forums' here!

Thanks Nuytsia!

I don't think I've ever seen a hardback of any of the Hobb books here in Australia...?

The older ones are harder to get - I got most from eBay. The new ones tend to be offered at discounted (almost paperback) price from Amazon on pre-order - so I always get them from there. Re.The older books: The first two assassin books pop up fairly regularly, but the price is never below £80 on hardback - so too rich for my blood - the rest are usually only a few £s. Don't know what the postage would be like to Australia though...

I used to love Stephen Donaldson too, but it was ages ago that I read his stuff. I'm not sure what I'd think of it now. I didn't even realise there was a 'last chronicles' until recently. I really should check it out.

I was a huge fan for years. The Last Chronicles are perhaps a bit overblown, but not as bad as some make out. Going to be starting the Third one in the next few weeks.
