For other omnibuses, I have the Hunger Games omnibus which was a very good deal at Amazon a while back, well below what it is right now. I have also added the King Raven Trilogy (a retelling of Robin Hood) by Stephen R. Lawhead to my library wish list which has a >4 rating on Amazon, but haven't had a chance to read any of them yet. |
I'll look into the King Raven trilogy, and the Shift Omnibus. I've still not read Mockingjay, but don't want to re read THG and CFire.

Yes, I've not read a word of Malazan but I harbor a feeling I'll not take to them. I'm unreasonably sure of that. Thanks to everyone who replied.
