Book Recommendations Needed

September 13, 2007 5:03pm CST
I'm a major bookworm and I'm also a fast reader. I read about one book a day. Currently, this means that I've run out of books to read. I've just finished everything on my reading stack and none of my favourite authors are coming out with new books for a coupla months. Right now I'm really into Fantasy and Romance genres. Some of the books I liked are Jim Butcher's Codex Alera Series, Mercedes Lackey's books, David Weber's books, Tamora Pierce's books, Nora Roberts' Books, Linda Howard's books, Christine Feehan's books, Julie Ortolon's books and Sandra Hill's books. I like my fantasy/sci-fi with a touch of military and a touch of romance to it nad I like my romance with a touch of humor to it. Any recommendations?

If you like historical fiction with just a touch of romance, I highly recommend the Sharpe series by Bernard Cornwell. It's 20 or 21 novels that take place during the Napoleonic Wars in Europe. The central character is Richard Sharpe, a street urchin who becomes a hero because of his intelligence and courage. Very addicting. There's also a television series based on the novels.

I just posted a sort of review of a book I finished. you might look into Robert J. Sawyer, I really enjoy his books - they are science fiction, but also very thought provoking
