I decided to join The 101 Fantasy Reading Challenge, because on the list of the 101 of the Best Fantasy Books, are lots of books that I was planning to read or re-read!
The rules for this challenge are:
1. Pick the number of books you want to read. It can be a mixture of the top 101, and/or the whole list. For example, you might want to aim to read 5 from the top 101 and 5 from the rest of the list.
2. Create a list of the books you want to tackle. You can create a list now, or add them as you go. Completely up to you.
3. The challenge runs from 10/10/09 to 10/10/10.
4. Please post the direct link to your 101 Fantasy Reading Challenge post. (so that other participants can visit and see what you are reading)
This challenge now is hosted by Michelle at The True Book Addict & has its own dedicated site, so if you want to join, sign up again HERE!

Hi!
ReplyDeleteWhat a fabulous list. I'm hoping I will get the books by Rick Riordan read as part of this challenge, they look so good.
Feel free to add any other fantasy books to your list, especially if they are part of a series already listed. I haven't read Eragon yet, but its on my wishlist :)
So glad you're still in!
