Dragon Prince ( Dragon prince book 1)
By Melanie Rawn

Nominated for the 1989 John W. Campbell Award, this book tells the story of Rohan, who has become the new prince of the desert. Rohan seeks to bring peace to his world of divided nations.




This was loaned to me from a friend and I’m so glad she did! The world and character building was just fantastic. Despite it having a very intricate story it was done so well and flowed nicely. Reminds me of those fantasy stories that were so popular in the 80s so it was nice to read a book full of fantasy and adventure. Looking forward to reading more by this author!

Last seen in (I believe) <i><s>Mort</s>Eric</i>, Terry Pratchett returns to his original Discworld characters of Rincewind and TwoFlower (and Cohen the Barbarian). In this entry, Rincewind is 'rescued' by the Wizards of Unseen University - a University that has changed since he was last there - from his desert island, only to be sent to the Counterweight Continent, where war is brewing ...

For some reason, this is not one of the Discworld books I would return to all that often (never found the Rincewind stories to be amongst the most enjoyable), but still has plenty of laugh out loud moments, alongside some other shrewd observations about life in general.
