During the 80's I was in Jr High/High School and remember that I enjoyed reading Fred Saberhagen's "Swords" books. Haven't read then since, so no idea how they hold up or how I like them now.

Oh, if Gollancz and SF Gateway are owned by Hachette, then I do have a substantial amount of books published by them

Now some grocery stores do buy acres of produce. I know HEB does. Actually they buy entire crops. Poteet strawberries and Fredericksburg peaches come to mind. Popcorn is the same way except Orville Redenbacher. He has his own fields. |

I do remember Sword of Shanara fondly from my youth but I re-read it a few years ago and .. wow ... I didn't remember how derivative it was of Tolkien. The original is much better. I liked the next two books and them being much more original than the first one though.
One that I haven't seen here that I really enjoy is the Earthsea Trilogy by Ursula LeGuin (1968-1972). I haven't read the 4th but it was written a couple decades after the first 3. Quote:

I managed the first 3 books of Thomas Covenant, struggled with the second 3 and gave up on the final 3.
I just discovered there are actually 10 books! |
