Hello Everybody!
I’ll lift this old thread up a little bit, although I know, that you all are into CoD and BoD . But I have to chare my feelings with people, who know, what I’m talking about.
Yesterday I finished Assassin’s Quest. It was my second re-read, but the first time in english. And I am completely overwhelmed . I’m normally a fast reader, sometimes too fast, when a book really hits me and I cannot stop reading. I probably also read the Farseer-Trilogy too fast. But this time, with the original, I read very careful and slowly, sometimes a sentence or a passage twice or even thrice. Oh, how I enjoyed it!!! The story and the characters were even more intense and as were my feelings during reading. I can’t tell how often I had tears in my eyes just because of just one sentence or so. Pure magic!!!
Hach, and now I can’t decide whether to go on with the Liveships and Tawny Man or if I better wait a bit and then start a re-read of Dragon Keeper and Dragon Haven. I absolutely have to re-read them before City of Dragons will come out in April .
