What do you have against spellfire? It's certainly better than you make "The White Gold Wielder" sound, and better than a lot of other books too!
Oooo I don't know if I should get started. "White Gold Wielder", while depressing, is still at least well-written. "Spellfire" reads like a bad transcript of the kind of D&D campaign I had when I was twelve.
Quote: I agree that "On a Pale Horse" is great though, along with the rest of the books in that series.
Really? I found the Time book moderately good and the ones after that pretty poor. I heard the last book about Evil was good but I didn't read it at that point.
I remember really liking Piers Anthony's "Split Infinity" series, especially the way the adepts were set up and their system of magic... very cool. Even though that series exemplifies all the annoying tics that Anthony has (mass nakedness, clueless main hero ends up sleeping with everything... in this case, even his horse... I swear Piers Anthony is such a perv...)
