Title: Legend of Drizzt (Its a very long series by the way, not a single book)
Author: R.A.Salvatore (Worship him >.> )
Rating?: T for Orcs and Giants and Goblins and the like getting their heads ripped off and ect (Its a Lord of the Rings style of Fantasy, you expect things like that XP)
Reason: I've read a lot of books in my life, from every type of genre. This book has very basic fantasy storylines, nothing extraordinary, but the character development is amazing.
I find myself crying out of happiness or sadness, my heart racing during the more intense moments, and you bet I get pretty darn mad in those times of injustice.
The book's just so good at drawing you into the emotions of the time. I can't help but shake my head in bewilderment at the chapters concerning the bad guys, people I would have loved to see die in other chapters, but I find myself siding and sympathizing with them in those parts written through their perspectives.
It takes a very skilled author to do that.
And it continues to amaze me how much I sympathize with the characters.
The main character, Drizzt Do'urden, is often known as the most beloved book character in all of fantasy. Guys, pick up the first two books, Homeland and exile, and you'll want to stick with the series to the end.
Being a reader of many books, I have a very high standard for them. Most books don't pass, and I read it, then put it away. Dut this is one series that's truly impressed me.

Title: Eragon & Eldest
Author: Christopher Paolini
Rating?: Both are E
Reason: It's very entertaining...It also has a bit of comedy. It has some twists that were very unexpected. But extremely long and there's another book on the way. ((Eragon was 500 pages and Eldest was 700+ pages)) It has to do with dragons and an evil tyrrant who keeps getting stronger with age. It's very good. 3nodding
Title: Storm Theif
Author: I forgot...
Rating?: E
Reason: This book is slightly more interesting. It's placed on an island in the middle of the ocean that's been iscolated from and other land. You actually don't know if there's any other land out there. So anyway the "Storm Theif" isn't an actual person just a storm with swirling colors that changes things. Like if there's a probability storm ((which is what they're called)) then anything could change like people could change into glass or streets could totally dissapear and reapear in a different place or dissapear entirely. So the main character Rail has been in one of the storms and his lungs no longer work because of it. I don't wanna give the whole story away but like i said it's interesting. Thought at the end it's a bit dissapointing...
