Lord Foul's Bane; The Chronicles of Thomas Covenant, the Unbeliever fantasy series written by Stephen R. Donaldson.
is 100% crap.
it was recommended to me many times on amazon.com... apparently it has a cult following, so i just thought i would warn you.
when i was reading it, i couldn't help but think, that everyone who gave this a positive review must simply be a bad person.
the main character is like an twisted version of an anti-hero. who never seeks redemption because he believes he is above it. the main character rapes a little girl, and is never punished within his fictional community.
i actually read page to page untill about 40% of the way through, then i skimmed the whole thing, because it got some good reviews. no redeeming quality's, do not read.
so if, like me, this is recommended to you because you rated some fantasy high on your list, steer clear of this one.
and just to lighten it up; i recommend the dark tower series, pillars of the earth, the stand, and anything by OSC.
