I liked it. edit: I'm not really a fantasy guy but like 5 people have recommended Jack Vance's Dying Earth books, worth a look? qirex fucked around with this message at 00:59 on Sep 20, 2011 |

qirex posted:That's the gas giant one, right? I liked it. I got the "Tales of the Dying Earth" compilation. I've started reading it a few times, then stopped after a few chapters. For the first book at least, each chapter is a short story where either main character from the previous story becomes a minor character, or a minor character from the previous story becomes the main character. It's kind of neat I guess, but I don't know if the rest of the books work the same way. I'm not really a fantasy guy either, so I never end up finishing it.
