Hello!
Right now I am 79% done with the book Deadhouse Gates, by Steven Erikson. I am going to recommend this book to anyone and everyone, it's incredible. And as far as writing goes, I am working on a review of Steven Erikson's, Gardens of the Moon. So stay tuned in and keep sending me emails.

Books
So, before I review any books, I want to give you a background on some of my favorite fantasy reads. My first real fantasy series was the WoT. If you don't know what that is, it means The Wheel of Time, by Robert Jordan. In my book it tops LOTR by miles, and I'm allowed to say that because this is my blog. After Jordan, my favorite authors would have to be Fiona McIntosh (The Quickening Series), Jim Butcher (Codex Alera Series, Dresden Files), and Terry Goodkind (The Sword of Truth Series). I know having Terry Goodkind on that list doesn't help my image much, but the protagonist (Richard) in his books grabs me by my shorthairs. In effect, I am pulled into his books one after the other, I cant help it. Come back for more. I am thinking about posting reviews every friday. What do you think? Drop me a comment and let me know...

Hello!
My name is Mark, or the Wearied Juggler. I do not actually get tired juggling, but i do get tired, and i do juggle. I just dont juggle enough to get tired juggling. Well, I've started this blog because I love reading Fantasy!!! But since I quit working to go back to school, my reading time has been seriously assaulted. I needed a serious excuse to keep reading, and here it is. I am going to review each book I read, and post a blog. This will help my writing skills, and hopefully entertain you. If I don't like a book, I will tell you why, and if I like it, I will sing it to you. So, please stay tuned in and read me!
