#Riotgrams #day8 #BooksLovedAsATeen I adored this High Fantasy series when I was a teenager, I still love them now. Even though the main character, Thomas Covenant, is one of the most unlikeable men ever written, he's still riveting to read about, and the concept of The Land, with its hurtloam, firewraiths, gravelingas, Revelstone & giants, has to be one of the most unique worlds ever written. Brilliant.

LauraBrook How are you doing? Are your eyes getting any better? (edited) 7y
Lizpixie @LauraBrook they are, thank you! I'm able to make out the words on a page now without having to squint & strain. I'm still having problems with focusing at times & the floaters still make it look like I'm trying to see through cobwebs & if I move my eyes too quickly I get like a swimming sensation, but actually seeing words on the page has improved 100%🎉 7y
DivaDiane Lord Foul's Bane has been on my TBR for decades! Literally. I own the book. 😳 (edited) 7y

LauraBrook @Lizpixie I‘m so happy to hear you can see so much better!!! 💚🎉 7y
TK-421 Ooh! Love those editions! These are some of my favourites too. Have you read the second chronicles and last chronicles? I just recently finished a reread of all of the books so I could finally read the last book. 7y
Lizpixie @TK-421 these are my originals from the 80s. I have the second chronicles as well and the first book of the last chronicles but I haven't read it yet. The first two I've reread so many times in the last 30yrs I could probably recite full chapters from memory. My first adult high fantasy obsession❤️ 7y

My two boys are off to a car show so daughter and I went book shopping (inspired by all your book haul photos!) Had to leave the 2nd hand bookshop after one aisle - it was TOO successful 😂 Right hand pile is hers.

Mine are all unread works by favourite writers. Except for the Donaldson. That was the first fantasy series I ever read. My sister lent me her copy at 18 - it blew my mind. My first antihero too - astonishing and devastating.

Centique I'm going to reread it. I expect the awful things that Thomas does will be even harder to read now though. 😬😳 8y
tpixie Fun girl adventure!! 8y
Centique @tpixie it was! Complete with hot chocolate and an Oreo cupcake 😍 8y

andrew61 i had all the Thomas covenant books as i read them many moons ago but then i put them in a table top sale which i now regret , i recall enjoying them so may revisit at some point. 8y
Centique @andrew61 isn't that always the way when you give away books? I need to reread it too and see if it still feels magical. 8y
