Those are all favorites of mine too (except Dragonlance, which I haven't read). From this list, I'm guessing you really like dragons? (I mean who doesn't, they're awesome)

There's nothing to be nervous about, we won't bite! Well, Psycho 101 may bite, but you're a guy so at least you don't have to worry about Blood- stalking you.

Thanks Tris8.
Dragonlance is really good, though they have a lot of books. Not all by the same author but I think they may go together in some small way. I only have a couple sets they all go with the War of Souls which is my favorite set right now.
I do love Dragons, ever since I was little, I used to always want to meet a dragon, it was not until I was about 11 before I realized they do not exist anymore or if at all.
Who is Psycho101 and Blood-? Should I worry about them? haha

I love the Dragonlance Chronicles. A lot of D&D players encounter them at one point or another given how they are interrelated. I've only really read the Chronicles themselves though, out of all the books produced for Dragonlance. (Weis & Hickman's original trilogy)

Tasslehoff is the best. Also, tinker gnomes.

I got the War of Souls set as a present one year and after that I bought I believe one or two other sets that go with it, I am sad to say I have not had a chance to read them yet, I am hoping with this summer I can go back and read the War of Souls again and then the other two sets I bought. I never thought I would come across someone else who has read any of them, so I feel I should read them now, also since I have forgotten a bit of what I did read, it easily tops my chart as one of the best sets I have read so far in my life. I have to agree that Tasslehoff is a good character though if memory serves correctly.

I'd appreciate it if you would stop spreading lies about me. It was an albino lemur (that's what I'm calling him anyways) and it was up in Casper Wyoming on a mountain trail. More privacy. And it wasn't just to watch him die. It was for scientific purposes.

I just had my rabies booster so it's all good.

Welcome knoell8504! I hope you have a good time here. This is a great place to discuss anime.

I really like that series too. I found the 2nd book to be a little slow, but loved the ending to the Cycle. It was very satisfying and I was very glad he didn't go the predictable route, particularly with the romance. I hope Paolini writes more stories set within the world of Alagaësia.
