Fantasy Book Club discussion

Post here if you are planning to read this book. Give us your first impressions.

My first impression is good, at about chapter five and the incentive to keep reading is there :-) I hate when I get all psyched to read a book then I cant get into it.

I've read it before, but I'm hoping to find the time to use this group read as an excuse to reread it as I loved it the first time.

I have the audio book from iTunes, however my iPod won't stay charged so might be late with this.

Will join in the discussion. I really enjoyed it.

I am about 3/4's through-and loving it!

Just started it,am 3 chapters into the novel...and really liking it a lot!Lord dy Cazaril seems an interesting character...the setting is also great!

I agree-Cazaril's loyalty could have been a bit overdone if it wasn't for his past, but I think after what happened to him, it is beleivable

I'm planning to join once I finish my current book!

Cazaril seems to be a bit too perfect,he doesnt seem to have any flaws at all!Of course,he does have his physical limitations,but other than that,no other weakness as such..

Starting to read this today!

One of the very few that makes me actively wonder what happens next, and whether I can't find a few minutes here or there to sneak a few more pages. In fact, if you don't mind, I'll just sign out now and get back to it ...

Just started at the beginning. I like it so far, it's easy to visualize. I'm already curious about what caused Cazaril to be in the position he's in.

The GR conundrum: to read, or to talk about reading.

i am reading this one i got my copy yesterday and it came in the post and i completely forgot i ordered it, it was a nice surprise on a saturday morning lol I don;t fancy reading the Gunslinger at all though!

It took me a while to get into this at the beginning, but I also didn't have time to read more than a few pages at once. It took a while to figure out what it was going to be about. Now I'm about 80 pages in, and I'm wanting to get back to it. Good sign.

I only just started reading this on the train this morning. It's my first Bujold, so I'm looking forward to it. :)

Just realized this finally got voted in as a group read. I've read it already and won't have time to reread this month, but will definitely join in the discussion. I love this book.

I started this with my iPod plugged in to the stereo, enjoyed beginning but left to long between listens. I'll have to restart it when I get my mg few iPod. Shame I can't get it on kindle here, UK.
