Interests in common: multiple; notable ones include science fiction, fantasy, Steven Brust, John M. Ford, The Princess Bride, used book stores.

I found your journal by seeing your comments on many LJs I was already reading.

Recommendation: Lois McMaster Bujold's The Curse of Chalion and Paladin of Souls, because I don't like much fantasy, but both Bujold and Brust are authors whose fantasy I not only like, but eagerly await.
