Was it any good? I remember reading it in high school and it kick started my love of reading. It was my favorite book back then but I'm scared to reread it.

so this is like, a unique troll post to /lit/ right? lol.

anyway, the writing itself is terrid. like a dyslexic, retarded 9th grader. the story and character relationships/interactions on the other hand... fuckin awesome. the first 3 books are good. after that, puke. re-read it.

/lit/ hates it but the first few books are legit good fantasy. It goes downhill from there but still not as bad as most here would have you believe and by the time that happens, you're either invested enough in the characters/story to keep reading anyway or you're not. It's not high-brow storytelling by any means and there are surely other options out there that are more worth your time but if you're in the mood for light, easy fantasy reading go for it and fuck what anyone else's opinion is.
