Can anyone recommend any books to me? I need something new to read. I like horrors, and fantasy/adventures.

Terry Pratchett books are fantasy and they are kwl, you get a mixture of fantasy/adventure/comedy, they are really good, i can lend you some if you like, i have the first two he wrote as well as a couple of others

they vary with the characters, but the main story line is that it is all about a world that is on the back of a turtle and the characters go through one mishap to another and still manage to stay alive, its funny while telling a good adventure story, but depends on what you like really

maybe, im also reading some murder books right now, they are quite good but a bit slow for me to get into, they just dont seem to go quick enough for me, they go right into a murder through the eyes of the killer and then it cuts to the cops trying to solve the crime and then it gets part way through and then it somehow moves into another crime that is along the same lines of the first one but the two have nothing to do with one another so its kind of messed up a little, but its good if you can keep up with the plot of it lol

Yeah... Sometimes you persevere with them, expecting them to get better... but sometimes they just dont. I think I hate that the most.

Pratchett is an awesome author
not read a book i wouldn't read till it fell apart yet

the ones you don't really hear much about by him are his collaborations with a pair of scientists called "The Science of Discworld". they're really good and as well as having a story through them, like you'd expect, they also discuss the current and old theories prevalnt in the sciences and how they relate to both teh Discworld and the Roundworld.

Highly reccommended

Lol, for all those who have seen the Eragon film, I really suggest you read the books. They are way better. And they aren't slow to get into, Christopher Paolini, the author, captures your attention right at the beginning. it is really good.
