I am in the process of re-reading this fantastic fantasy trilogy, and I what everybody else thought of it. I find it very refreshing, despite having a main character who is very difficult to love.

I love the literary quality of his work, but not a real big fan. My partner loves the series and says there's internet talk of a movie being made that's being kept under wrap.

It's a pretty adult tale with serious mind shit going on. The girl gets raped. The guy's a leper in a small town. As a writer, I totally relate to his issues with his past writing history. I would love to see the the stone city, but I wonder how a singing giant in a boat would come off on screen.

wow i read those book when i was like 10 my memory is alittle fuzzy but i recall blood gaurd being awesome thomas being a jerk, and that i finished 6 books in a week, judging of that i'm going to say they were quite a good read

I read the first two because there was nothing else to read in the house. In any case, I found myself absolutely loathing EVERY CHARACTER... except Thomas himself. I think it was mostly because I thought it was a good way of portraying the whole, "omgz i got hit bye a car and nowz im in a new UNIVERSEEEEEEEE" thing: having Thomas confused out of his mind and hating everyone for telling him he's their new god (or whatever) when he knows it's not real. And I loved how he kept killing everything because I hated everyone. Not the point, but still.

By sheer coincidence I just picked up the first and, annoyingly, third books in a charity shop today. I doubt I'll get round to reading them any time in the the next four or five months; far too many other literary treasures to plunder. It was the very last bit of the blurb that piqued my interest; I find the thought that he doubts the reality of the fantasy world intriguing (and of course, this is now an opportunity for those who have read it to shatter my hopes that this idea will be developed in a satisfactory manner...)
