That sounds really interesting, which sounds like I'll have to add it to my list. Which is already getting quite a bit lengthy. But that's ok, coz it sounds like all the books haven't been released yet, so I should wait anyhow.
And you've asked the magic question! What are my favourite books? Let me enlighten you. *bookworm*
My favourite books would have to be The Witches of Eileannan and Rhiannon's Ride, by Kate Forsyth - that's nine books altogether, and I was lucky enough to have picked up the first series after all the [6] books had been released. Rhiannon's ride is set in the same world, but is a later story, and I made sure I waited til those three books were released before I started reading them.
The Obernewtyn Chronicles, by Isobelle Carmody are also amazing books. 6 of the 7 (I think) books have been released so far, but she's promising to release the 7th book sometime next year! They're about a recovering world (I think it's meant to be our Earth) after what sounds like nuclear warfare, but there are these people called 'misfits' who have talents, and a religious, power-hungry faction called Herders who are trying to destroy misfits, and there's a struggle to prevent a recurrence of whatever happened (we don't know exactly just yet) because if it does all life will be dsetroyed. But the story is more interesting than just that. I don't like giving things away
And I also love The Circle of Nine Trilogy, by Josephine Pennicott. It actually gave me nightmares, but I'm just a scaredy cat. Hehe. It's a dark fantasy, about a world that is kinda linked to our own world.
I might be just a tad overzealous about books and reading.
