I kept no records whatsoever of the books I read before blogging, but there are some that I remember well enough that I think I could do something similar. Also, CB James had mentioned that he might re-publish some of his older posts.

The writing in LOTR has a lot more depth, and the story (apart from being way too long!) is quite complex. <br /><br />ATNF is more historical fiction than fantasy though. It is set in fuedal Japan, and most of it could have happended. I find it very interesting that you compare them, as I wouldn't have put them in the same bracket at all!<br /><br />I'm pleased you enjoyed them all though.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07698068501004755678noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3291822984443127930.post-56680374544320448332009-05-18T08:30:00.000-04:002009-05-18T08:30:00.000-04:00I've had Across the Nightingale Floor on my shelf ...I've had Across the Nightingale Floor on my shelf for years and never managed to read it.

The writing style was very simple, and I think it would probably be a great book for children, but didn't have enough depth for me. I didn't go on to read the rest in the series, and if you say the first was the best, then I'm glad I made that decision. Perhaps it comes across differently on audio book?Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07698068501004755678noreply@blogger.com
