Hello - Introduction and Request :)

Unread post

Hi all,

I'm new here and just wanted to first say Hi and hello to everyone :). I absolutely love reading and as soon as I pick up a book and get into it then I simply cannot put it down! Here's a little about me:
  • I'm Male
    I live in UK
    I enjoy Online Gaming, Reading, Movies, Tv Shows
    I read mainly fantasy books
    I found this site through a Google search

I have read all my books (several times over) and cannot find what to read next.
Here's a list of the books I have both hard copy and kindle, maybe someone could recommend a new series or something?

Harry Potter - J.K. Rowling

Boy Soldier Series - Andy McNab

Lorien Legacies (I am number four) - James Frey

Sword of Truth Series - Terry Goodkind

Alex Rider Series - Anthony Horowitz

The Immortals Series - Alyson Noel

Danial X Series - James Patterson

The Secret Circle Series - L.J. Smith

Wicked Series - Nancy Holder

Inheritance Cycle - Christopher Paolini

Percy Jackson Series - Rick Riordan

Heroes of Olympus Series - Rick Riordan

Twilight Saga - Stephanie Meyer

Lord of the Rings Series - J.R.R. Tolkien

Any books/series suggestions would be really appreciated.

Thank You

Welcome to the community!

I sure would love to see more fantasy genre fans join so we can get a great book discussion going. What online games are you into? Let me guess... World of Warcraft?

Thanks :)

Yeah that would be great if we could, I'm out of ideas of what to read next, so a good discussion would be appreciated.

Haha I used to play WoW but not anymore, mainly I play Call of Duty Black Ops 2 with a load of my friends.

Not into gaming myself, but I love a good epic fantasy. Currently I am reading the "Song of Ice and Fire" series by George R. R. Martin.; right now I am in book 2, "A Clash of Kings." I know the first book "A Game of Thrones" was made into a TV series, and I think there is a game, but not sure. Anyway, if you liked LOTR you might like this one.

As I have not watched the tv show, I can't answer your question. Sorry.
