gogoblender 3,070 Posted December 26, 2016 Share Posted December 26, 2016 First x-mas without SIF But merry x-mas to all. We're still here Tornado, and we do love to talk Game... I like to think that as we have some of the biggest posters from the SIF *cough cough*, a lot of the game's heart was and still resides here... I think we're all lucky to have had such a phenomenon to us as gamers, pretty sure that nothing like this has happened with late console gaming yet? My cousin's a big Xbox player, and he buys loads of stuff, and gets bored of them quickly.. We're still here gogo Link to comment

I love reading your stories Chattius, I remember the early days of life with your twins, and can't believe how much they're already grown up since the years here. Thanks for the christmas wishes, and am lolling a little with your words "have closed the forest for selling Xmas trees..." This lovely world we live in.. gogo Link to comment
lujate 578 Posted December 26, 2016 Share Posted December 26, 2016 Merry Christmas everyone. No white Christmas here, we had the 5th warmest Christmas ever recorded, and the warmest since 1970. 1 Link to comment

Happy Christmas Veracious, hope yer in for the holidays enjoying the tv shows ...though this is the down season ain't it gogo Actually funny you mention that. I am binge watching the Shannara Chronicles. It's actually pretty good. Based on the shannara novels. I think by Terry Brooks. Its been a while. Link to comment
Gilberticus 374 Posted December 28, 2016 Share Posted December 28, 2016 Yes! Terry Brooks has been my favorite author for over thirty years, and I have every book in the Shannara series minus Allanon's quest. I have mixed feelings on the tv show, but I enjoyed it overall. In fact, I owe most of my career to the Shannara series; my blacksmithing started out as just wanting to forge my own version of the sword, woodworking started out as wanting to copy Allanon's staff, and gemology started out with me buying a tumbler because I wanted to reproduce the six types of elfstones. The Shannara series has influenced so many aspects of my personal and professional career, I owe a lot to Mr. Brooks. 1 Link to comment

The Shannara series has influenced so many aspects of my personal and professional career, I owe a lot to Mr. Brooks. I didn't read that particular series but I did start the Landover series. I believe I read that first three. But alas I was a teen and so easily distracted and at the time not very passionate about reading like I was later in life. I should really get back to those books. I loved that kingdom. It wasn't until I was twenty five that I got fully engulfed in reading. It was the Death Gate Cycle by Margaret Weissman et al (can't recall the other). Nine books I believe. Amazing series about magic and assassins and dragons and multiple dimensions (which is actually integral to the story). Then was Anne Bishop's black jewels trilogy. My favorite of all time. Wish it was still going. Link to comment

I've read everything, well, at least for a while by this author...soemone I know had told me when I was a kid that this author was more "accessible" for reading than Tolkien...and I found they were right... plots moved faster, didnt get bogged down in too much emo and moral quagmires...just the great exciting read I was looking for in my teens... is this series on hbo? gogo Link to comment
Knuckles 904 Posted December 30, 2016 Share Posted December 30, 2016 Not to be contrarian, but wasn't a big fan of MTV's interpretation of the Shannara series. I wasn't expecting too much seeing as MTV was doing it. A lot of teen angst, and while that is not a deal-breaker for me (l do enjoy the Hunger Games and Divergent movies), I just felt it was out of place for me. I did watch all of season 1 so I guess I did enjoy it enough, but just not what I envisioned Shannara to be. 1 Link to comment

Season two scheduled for spring. I am also a fan of fast moving stories with less filler wasted on environmental description and such. Anne bishop is like that. Kim Harrison wrote the hollows series that way. Patricia Briggs similar. I wrote a few above I believe also. Or maybe another post. Link to comment
