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

[FoolishGirl]

Hello, all! I'm finally de-lurking after lots of time spent here as a "guest". I found RH's books through a Kindle promotion a couple of years ago: they give you the first book in a series for free and hope to hook you in to buy all the rest. Two bleary-eyed weeks later, I finished the FS and TM trilogies, firmly and forever on Team Beloved. I've read all of RH's series, and have re-read the FS and TM series at least three times each (can you say "obsessed"?). I love my Kindle because I have all my favorite passages marked, many with comments like "proof that Fitz and Beloved belong together" and "Argh! What does he see in her?!".

I am an editor in This Universe. I came to fantasy via Tolkein via English Lit, so I get turned off rapidly by leaden, stereotypical characters and ugly prose (sorry, Robert Jordan, I really tried, but couldn't face reading book #5 through infinity of the Wheel of Time--too painful!). I very much like Patrick Rothfuss right now.

I have given up proselytizing about RH books, because once you say "well, it's this alternate medieval universe with some really cool magic...", people tune out.
