I'm looking for a new fantasy series to pick up. A friend of mine recommended this series, but I want some outside opinions.

Ok, cool.

Now, how "fantasy" are they? Is there magic? Other races? Classic fantasy races (elves, dwarves, orcs, goblins), or new ones?

Without spoiling too much: It's mainly humans but there are some other races. Don't expect a FR scenario though. There is also some magic, but it's not very common.

Best fantasy series ever, in my opinion.

It's a custom world, but a LOTR clone, so no elves here.

It start out as a more realistic medieval world, but he introduce more fantastic and supernatural elements as the story goes on. I think it's well done, it really make it seem like something special, instead of the overabundance of magic on other books.

Hum, I've never heard of it. Can I get a bit of backround story on it? I'm kind of looking for some new reading myself.

Background story would spoil, just get it... [img]tongue.gif[/img]

Go get it, get it now... why are you still reading this? It is (I believe) the greatest fantasy series ever written.

just bought it and started reading today. I'm on chapter 3, and its pretty cool so far!

Luvian, I'm asking you because you're in canada too. Where would be the best place to buy it at the best price?
Amazon.com has it for 3.50. I guess that's US and I don't know if that's new or used, plus shipping.
