  1. I probably have, but I didn't know who they were. Never have I ever killed a tarantula.
  2. Well, the DragonLance series is a shared world, where various authors share the same world. It's actually an offshoot of Dungeons & Dragons, of which you can actually obtain 'Campaign Settings' and play the actual RPG/boardgame. The novels sprouted up when Weiss & Hickman decided to write novels in the Dragonlance setting of which they also were the creators. Since the books back in the eighties, it has sprouted into a huge series. The books come in trilogies and other stand-alone series within the setting. But the original 'DragonLance Chronicles' of which I'm speaking, is what I'd suggest, and is in two trilogies. The first group of 'Chronicles' takes place during the War of the Lance, when the heroes are in search of Dragon Orbs, and Dragon Lances, in order to fight in the apocalyptic battles. The 'Lost Chronicles' come next, but instead of carrying on from where the others left off, it goes back and fills in some of the missing events of the original 'DragonLance Chronicles' They really are great books, and it's really neat, after reading the original story, to go back and then relive the lost moments that left you wondering to begin with. As for Eberron, that is another shared world, much like DragonLance, only its a different world were magic takes on a more modern setting of life. With tall towers held up by magic, and galleons that fly through the sky, to detectives called inquisitors that solve crimes. There is also a race of magical beings that are like sentient metal and iron robots. A very exiting world, I do say.
  3. I would have to suggest The Han Solo Trilogy. It takes place in the early life of Han Solo, and ends right where we meet him in the movies. Of the two dozen Star Wars books I've read, those would have to be the best. If you can get a copy of that trilogy, I wouldn't pass it up. It even shows how he met Chewy, and why Han has such a love for Wookies.
