The first 6-9 forgotten realm books by R.A. Salvatore are enjoyable reads. He played EverQuest back in the day and the books / world has a very EQ feel to it.

The Dragonlance series mentioned is also pretty good. If you want that 'pure fantasy' feel they are both good choices.

If you're an avid or experienced reader then you may enjoy some of Guy Gavriel Kay's work more. He has several stand alone historical fiction-esq fantasy novels set in the same Universe and then a high fantasy series called "The Fionavar Tapestry".

That movie was shit canned. One of the concept artists released a bunch of work that they were going to use if you want to see what it could've been though.

Haha dam, yeah it didn't sound too promising after a while heard the original movie version would have started in the second novel or something

Sort of weird post-apocalyptic though, not actually fantasy fantasy of the game of thrones type

Well, I like scifi movies like Dark City is one of the GOAT. I haven't read a scifi book since elementary school probably.


My bro mentioned reading
-The Stormlight Archive series
-and also Dark Force Rising series (star wars I guess) if I wanted to get out of high fantasy.

My favorite is the Fungus Comforts My Level 7 Alt: A Return to Bipolar Disorder.

You're enraged.
