No, why would a word like techy or techie annoy me?  It isn't a person.

Anyways, the original poster here may be interested in checking out the blog Nick and I maintain that reviews all sorts of new novels.  We review most of the stuff people are recommending, as well as a bunch of stuff people are leaving off.

@Bookstore: I am a techy. We have absolutely no skill at grammar, pronunciation, or spelling.

I will probably continue to annoy you with stuff like this. I am guessing that you are annoyed at the use of the word "techy".



I am, but only because it's actually spelled 'techie'...

How can you possibly have read 100 fantasy series of books when you only list over 20?

Um... clearly that's not a complete list...

Yeah thats not a complete list for one thing the star wars I have read could be considered 10+ series but I really meant over 50+ series for sure and many that aren't complete yet... or very recognizable.

Thanks for all the suggestions most are on my list to get when I next go to used book store. Thanks a lot!

My mistake.  I guess I read your post too quickly.  I'm currently have the same problems looking for new fantasy authors.  Try books by Lois McMaster Bujold, Alex Bledsoe, John Flanagan, Peter Brett, Kristin Cashore, David Gemmel and J.V. Jones.
