My only problem with the books is that Martin tries too hard to be morally ambiguous at times with the characters performing actions that don't seem natural. Conan stories: Pick up a volume of Robert E. Howard Conan tales. Howard writes great prose. The stories are good. You get to see where the inspiration for the Conan movie came from.The Coffin Dancer: This isn't a fantasy book. It's a mystery written by Jeffrey Deaver. I really like Jeffrey Deaver stories. They always seem to have an interesting twist that isn't telegraphed. This is the best Deaver book out of the four or so that I've read.It: If you haven't read this Stephen King classic, you're missing out.The Count of Monte Cristo: One of the best books I've ever read. You've probably read this classic. But if you haven't, you should.Otherland by Tad Williams: I'll second this series of books. Very good series. Elements of sci fi and fantasy, written as a pure fantasy book. Nice prose. Interesting characters. Good pacing. Very interesting plot that you won't figure out until the end.</blockquote>
