12/50 so so-so only. Would love to know what you think of Mercedes Lackey's "The Last Herald-Mage" trilogy. It can be found (with difficulty) in a one volume edition. Separately the titles in order are: Magic's Pawn, Magic's Promise, Magic's Price.

@ctp2067  They all sound great! I'll be sure to check it out!

[myd3ath]

If I were to recommend anything, it would be Karin Slaughter's first four books called Blind sighted, Kisscut, A Faint Cold Fear, and Indelible. Great mystery books, kind of graphic but amazing books.

[awesomeskier12345]

[kellenlask]

The Subtle Knife is the second book, and the worst in the series. The Golden Compass is the first.
