regrettably, my library doesn't have any of the riders of pern books, which is really too bad since I'm reaching the end of the darkover books I had borrowed and I wanted something else to read

They do have the locked tomb books (in french) so that was tempting, but I am just not sure I'm emotionally ready to either get into this or find out I don't like it and start being annoyed at 15% of my tumblr dashboard

I guess I need to check what other old school fantasy/sf books they have

#I realise that as much as I love fantasy I mostly just read what my dad had lying around #and our tastes didn't always align #I distinctly remember reading the entire Lyonesse trilogy by Jack Vance just because it was there and hating 85% of it with burning passion #(though the other 15% I really really loved a lot)#(unlike Darkover I absolutely refuse to subject myself to Lyonesse ever again and I doubt Ill want to read anything else of Jack Vance ever #I also have vague memory of other books I'd picked up and dropped #one I think was about those d&d novel dark elves with the spider cult?#another about a prince with a cursed sword that has super powers but pushes him to kill #and one prequel of like a mouse-themed clever guy and his big brawn buddy?#at the times I found these boring but I was young and also I skip fight scenes in novels so that didn't help lol #jau rants #and boy did I rant in the tags this time lol
