Right now I am reading The Storyteller by Jodi Picoult, one of my favourite authors.

Nice, I should really get back into reading GOT books. I've only read the first one.

The Cambridge Companion to Fantasy Literature, edited by Edward James and Farah Mendlesohn. Kind of simultaneously relieved and disappointed that it's way easier than my critical theory reading.

I'm still reading the Icewind Dale Trilogy. At the same time I'm reading Valerie Flint's The Rise of Magic in Early Medieval England, which is something I need for work/uni. The Cambridge Companion to Fantasy Literature, edited by Edward James and Farah Mendlesohn. Kind of simultaneously relieved and disappointed that it's way easier than my critical theory reading. Ooooh, sounds really cool. Cambridge Companions are always great as easy educational reads. I've never found one about fantasy literature, but now I know there is one I'll keep my eyes open! |

The same people edited the Companion for Science Fiction as well. Farah Mendlesohn's one of the primary critics in that field, and she seems to be one for fantasy as well, given that she's written another book called The Rhetorics of Fantasy that I need to pick up at some point. |

I'm currently reading Garden of the Purple Dragon by Carole Wilkinson. It's part of a young adult fantasy series I read when I was younger, and am re-reading now to see if I still liked it, and I do!

Way too much. I still haven't finished the Icewind Dale Trilogy, but recently started reading The Thieves of Stonewood by Jeremy Hayes, because I was asked to write a review about it. I'm also still reading a book on magic in the Middle Ages that I started months ago, and I'll have to finish Christopher Marlowe's Doctor Faustus within the next two weeks.
