Hi there :D

Just logged in to the forum to see what was going on, so i thought i best just introduce myself.

I have been an avid WS fan for quite some time now (i feel old when i say that) and have been lucky enough to own and read all of his fantastic books at least twice.

I was first introduced to 'The Eye of the Tiger' when i pulled it from my dad's bookshelf years ago and couldnt put it down. After having a few years away from Wilbs i then got reacquainted when i read 'When the Lion Feeds' a few years later.

I enjoy books about good old fashioned heroes, and needless to say Sean Courtney fitted the bill. I particularly remember the scene where Sean fights his father in the study, catching him by surprise when he hits him with an already broken hand....

Anyhow, a few years later my partner and i were fortunate enough to have twins......unfortunately i couldnt get her to agree to Sean and Garrick as names..... :wink:

But thats enough of all that. I am looking for suggestions as to which of the books you think i should read *again* and why. I cant think of any one book that i didnt get along with, and i do not have any clear favourite. Also, if you know where i can get hold of 'The Seventh Scroll' TV series please let me know.

Cheers for now and thanks in advance for your suggestions.

Hi Dodgy & welcome to the Forum!

I vote you re-read "River God". IMHO, the best book ever!

A good suggestion thanks Nefer. I also have to say that i was really glad that WS chose to continue the Egypt series with 'The Quest'.

Hi dodgy, welcome to the Forum.

Did you like The Quest? I'd be interested to know what score you'd give it. There's a poll in The Egyptian thread. :)
