Otherworld - Tad WilliamsFollow

About 1/2 done with second book in this series and I am so impressed with the story. Set in the future and relates to a modern VR internet. Great reading.

Shadowmarch.com has the first 5 chapters of his next series coming out. Read it and pre-ordered the book immediately, and now I must wait until Nov. 2 to finish it. Amazing story so far. In just the few chapters on the website I am extremely intrigued with the fantasy world he is creating in this series.

I really liked this series, though when I gave the first book to my dad and he quit reading it because it took forever to start the story, I realized that the whole first book was to set up the next three. In retrospect, it seems like the first 500 pages of the Sword of Shanarra.

I really did enjoy the characters though. you really can't not like Jonas, and Dread's pretty cool even though he's insane... He reminds me a lot of Kefka, only with Dread you actually get to see his justification of delighting in slaughter... He thinks that he is the hero. There used to be a poster called TheEvilHero on this site that had a quote in his/her signature stating something to the effect that every villain is a hero in his own eyes. I know that the most interesting villains always are.

i love tad williams have all his books, now waiting patiently for his new book
