I love books that take me to other worlds and dimensions, that inspire me to dream beyond the realms of reality. As objects, I find books to be some of the most beautiful man-made creations, and I prize them both for their outer beauty and the contents of their pages.

I am passionate about a few authors in particular, like C.S. Lewis,... more »

    I love the books on your shelf also. These kinds of books allow you to broaden your imagination & make your mind play them as though they were a film. I love it when books do that.

    Great to find someone with similar interests! Hope you will become a friend. Perhaps you're interested in the group Christian Fantasy Fiction.

    If you're interested in Lewis and Tolken, consider starting a thread at the Inklings group.

    I would like to suggest Catherine Christian's The Pendragon if you have not read it--it is not well known among Arthurian buffs, but is one of my favorites.

    I am actually in the same boat as you. I read reviews that GG Kay was a good writer so I picked up about five of his books at, where else, but the second hand bookstore. I have not started them as I am currently reading Judith Tarr's "Kingdom of the Grail". The character development is sort of lacking, and she gets a little too romance-novel for me, but the storyline is interesting enough. As soon as I finish it I am probably going to start the Fionavar tapestry series by Kay, so I will keep you posted on that. Other authors like him... I'm not so sure, but I'm always looking so I'll let you know how the search goes.

    Wow! Amazing book shelf! I love you selection. It just made my "to read list" a lot longer. You might want to try out some the works by Charles de Lint. He mixes Celt-Irish and Native American myths with modern settings.
