You know, I'm not really much into reading Epic Fantasy any more these days -- I read it so much as a kid that I practically glutted on the stuff *g* -- but these days, I'm a lot more fond of urban fantasy. Stories where our world blends with the supernatural, I am so there I was reading it yesterday. *g*

(Fairytales, obviously, don't count here. Fairytales are awesome no matter what they are.)

But that doesn't stop a piece of fairly epic "high fantasy" music from totally getting to me, to the point where I can see the white castles and dramatic swordfights between masked men and women in black robes and bird-masks and the sky on fire.

Guys, guys, I love the music I'm listening to right now. o/ (A piece by Immediate Music called "Electric Romeo.") It makes me want to write things. LUNCHBREAK CANNOT COME SOON ENOUGH. \o/

P.S. Senpai! I watched the first two episodes of Storm Hawks last night. :Db I WILL BE WATCHING MORE, I THINK /o/

^^ Hahaha, I've read all of those, except for James Alan Gardner who I'll look up the next time I'm at the bookstore. But hey! Our tastes are similar then.

I actually should reread Janny Wurt's series. I remember starting on them, but I think it may have been over my reading level when I tried. So never quite got into them.

Gardner is definitely worth the lookup! :D I especially like Expendable and Ascending, though they're all worth it. (Well, maybe not Committment Hour -- that was like the one flop of the series. But the rest are good! o/)

The Janny Wurts books are dense, I think is the problem; she puts a LOT of extra detail and over-the-top language -- honestly, it's gotten to a point where it tires me out a bit to read her stuff. XD; But I still like her world and her characters (and her glossary for her world's language is interesting; I've never seen one that gives the roots of languages♥) and her story, so I'm willing to put up slogging through her language for it. XD
