Robert Jordan Wheel of time series. If you like comedy fantasy then you've just gotta read the Terry Pratchett Discworld books, in fact read them anyhow you'll love them.

If looks could kill.....the good, the bad and the darn right ugly!

Yeap, I've read this book and it's def! Its about a guy with the powers to kill anybody when upset. Only problem is he doesn't want it as he never asked for it and it's getting him noticed by the police, the men of the underworld and a comical notorious Bunty Hunter whose a big big Michael Jackson fan! Apart from that, he cant control who he kills when
under the curse and has just killed his beautiful exgirlfriend.

Danny Thompson is this guy and he is being pressured by a Mafia family to kill his boss, the father of the girl he's falling in love with and the owner of the firm he works for! The Mafia need to make a quick sale for an Oil firm on behalf of a corrupt African Dictator (not Saddam, that's Iraq) and they've found one. The one Danny works for. Only problem is the owner doesn't want to sell and to make matters worse, he's related to another more powerful Mafia family in New York.

Danny's the best option for the Mafia to bump John Hopkins (C.E.O of Hopkins International) off without directing attention to themselves).

A dark romantic comedy thriller with a tinge of comedy! Make sure you read this as it won an award in the Houston Film Festival last year and there are plans to turn it into a film later this year! Actors and actresses are being sort!

IF you're interested, I could direct you to a cool web site to buy it!

FallenArchAngel
Icewind Dale is another series I recommend

Right now I'm reading a 5 part series about Merlin. The author is T.A. Barron. It wont be too hard finding them. They're pretty simple but fun to read. E-mail me, I'd like to stay in touch.

Read Warcraft: War of the Ancients series, good for fantasy/action-adventure.

I would HIGHLY suggest the Deltora book siries.

Fantasy hmmm...

Short reads or long ones?

Tamora Pierce has some great short reads. She does alot of women in arms. Her Tortallian stuff is really good. (*grr* haven't read Circle of Magic yet *grr*)

Mercedes Lackey is GREAT. She's done alot of stuff though.

Her Valdemar novels are my favorite, though the Fairy Tales series were pretty good too.

Anyway, you've got alot of suggestions from everyone else and those two are all I want to give cause it's 1:31 in morning right now. big grin
Have fun.
