Whereas in school (I'm 25 now btw) I used to stay up all night reading quite often and get through at least a couple of books a week, I now spend too much time working, looking after my daughter, spending time with my Fiancee, gaming, reading game-books and the like to read. And when it comes to fantasy - I feel I've read it all before - when I read now, it has to be a bit different from the same old fantasy I used to read. Neil Gaiman, Clive Barker etc I still read their fantasy, but otherwise I'm into comics, sci-fi, crime, espionage and anything but fantasy.And I never liked LotR, I feel the films outshone the book, which was overlong and pretty damn dry in places.</blockquote>
