Heyla, this is the same person as auroreanstars -- just letting you know that I deleted that journal (I did actually have a reason...long story), and am now using this one. ^_^
"All those who would be Magic's Pride must then pay Magic's Price."
I just started rereading Last Herald-Mage!!! I'm currently bidding on the special three-in-one hardcover edition on ebay... Anyway, who do you like more -- Vanyel or Tylendel?
And you'll be happy to know that I'm ordering the special three-in-one Abhorsen Trilogy HC book from the SFBC -- I'll finally be reading the rest of it!
::Has a break down:: OMG. Can I rave at you about this?
I currently do not own LHM, but I plan to at some point. Some point soon. And I will probably get multiple copies of it. ^^
I have to say that I like Vanyel better. But really, that's just because I love the angsty pretty boys. Besides, the picture of Vanyel I have fixed in my mind, is like, drop dead gorgeous. And he is so deliciously angsty! Although, I know people who see him as whiny... don't like it when people say that... grr...
And I do like Tylendel, because of how sweet and indulgent of Vanyel he is. Infact I love him imensely. But, Vanyel takes the cake.
Gah! Let me know when you finish it, alright? Then we can totally talk about it!! I don't want to tell yo anything now... you might not have gotten there yet... o.o
Ooh! I hope you get hooked on Mercedes Lackey!! I love her soo much! This much! ::flings arms open wide::
Oh, you should join the Valdemar comm. on LJ! It's thechosen... it's great, alot of discussions and things...
...And I can just hear all my friends saying, "You got her started... you just had to get her started didn't you?" Well, they can all shut up... I don't care, I love Mercedes Lackey!!
And right. Garth Nix. Can't ignore him, now can we? Right. Actually, those books are some of my absolute favorites. I own Sabriel and Lirael, and I'm waiting for Abhorsen in paper back, before I buy it. Anyway, those are very, very good books that I recommended to my English teacher last year, and she read them, and she loved. So. Yes...
DAMNIT. I typed this humongous response and then it disappeared. I'm SO MAD NOW.
Anyway.
YOU DON'T OWN LHM???? *gasp*
I love Vanyel, more than Tylendel/Stefen. And my image of Van is drop dead gorgeous as well.
Silly, I've read this before! I'm rereading this trilogy -- it's one of my favorites! Haven't I told you before? This must be the seventy-millionth time I've read it!
And *laughs* I'm already hooked on Lackey! Did you know Exile's Valor comes out on November 4th? I CAN'T WAIT!!!!!!!!! I loved Exile's Honor -- SO GOOD! And Take a Thief wasn't bad, but I thought Exile's Honor was better. I have yet to read By the Sword and Brightly Burning -- but I do have BB on my shelf. And I'm ordering Queen's Own/Heralds of Valdemar (Arrows of the Queen, etc.) because I need to read those. I've also read Mage Winds and I started Mage Storms, but never finished it.
I actually was in The Chosen -- that's where I found your livejournal :P -- but I have to rejoin it, since I deleted my other LJ.
You know what YOU should join? The Vanyel Fan Club. It's an email list. Just go on google and do a search for the Vanyel Fan Club or Queen's Own -- it's at dragonlordsnet, you're bound to find it (I don't have the URL handy at the moment)!
Ehehehehe, Sabriel was pretty good. Can't wait to read Lirael!
November 4?!?!?!?! Really?!?!? I cried at that book.
And I think I probably did know that had read it before, and I just forgot in my happiness. Ah well. I have a memeory like a steel trap, it's just a very selective steel trap! Hee hee!
I have read all the Valdemar books save for Valor, and that' because it's not out yet, so.
Acyually I have found the Queen's own. I'm joining. I'm making a Tayledras character. I would make a Herald, but when I saw you be a Tayledras I made a very loud, very high pitched noise. They are my favorite people ever. So that's who I will become. Yay! ^^
We should rave sometime at eachother about all out extensive knowledge of ML. Whee!
Hahahaha...actually, you can join before you get a persona. I don't even have an official persona yet, and I've been a member for at least a year and a half! I just joined the emailing list...and I'll probably make a persona sometime soon (there's a way around it, I think you can just email the person and ask to be added to the email list). If you want, I can email Healer Moonstar for you.
Really? That's interesting... And thank you, but I can email her. Or Danya... I talk to her on AIM alot... I think I just might do that... Thanks! I still am making a persona though... I mean, that's half the fun right?
You talk to Danya on AIM a lot? What's her screenname?
I'm making a persona too...I've rolled my dice for all of Bardic, Herald, and Healer, and I still can't decide which of those I want to be more... Probably a Herald -- I'd try to be a Herald-Mage. :D
And I was so happy when I rolled the dice for Tayledras. I got exactly the things I wanted. k'Treva, Adept Mage, and I can Midspeak to humans, my bondbird, and other non-human races. I sqealed with joy for like, 15 minutes straight.
You should be a bard! Don't you play the violin? How perfectly does a Bard suit you?
I play violin, piano, feadog, (a tiny bit of) guitar, and I sing.
Where are the guidelines for being a Tayledras? I couldn't find them!
I ruled out Healer. So now I'm just picking between Bard and Herald (Herald-Mage, hopefully). I really want to be a Herald, but in real life I want to have a musical career when I graduate college...so I don't know what's more suited for me... But maybe Tayledras would be good...I just want to see the guidelines page, first.
I'm "EstetOracle". What are you? I have my thing set so that only people who are on my buddy list can IM me, so if we wanna talk, I need to have your SN... it's weird, but it keeps the scary stalkers away... ^^
