Let me here you scream you want some more" hey guys, registered a while ago but stuff came up, and holidays etc so it’s only just no what I can start participating on the board
*just a quick warning, fourth paragraph contains a spoiler to the Braided Path and Broken Sky*
Um bout me... I'm Cameron; call me camy, or Cam. 19 year old half Scottish half English mongrel: D Interests wise, I love clubbing, music (anything really, I love dance but it’s a known law all gay men must like dance music ), computer games, comics (yes I'm a geek but I'm mostly in the closet so shhh lol), reading. I'm also a big reader; I love the classics, like Moll Flanders, Jane Eyre, Wuthering Heights, Shakespeare, Kafka… to modern writers like Haruki Murakami, Arthur Miller and yes Mr Wooding
Chris saved me from giving up on the fantasy genre, with its constant Tolkien driven clichés and Mary Sues. I mean characters like the gender bending sociopath Asara is great (she made the braided path trilogy so much fun, I preferred her to Kaiku); to the resourceful survivor Poison (any one who could spend all that time in the bone witches house deserves the title resourceful survivor); and Kia and Ryushi (who I will marry , I pretend the whole Aurin romance thing never happened) as well as Whist (who I did like, and loved to hate, he was so arrogant and cheeky perfect antihero material).
I try not to offend people and I do hope to discuss the good and BAD points of Chris Wooding’s books with out people raging at me like an angry bull wyvern (I know how protective some fans can be).
Well that’s all I can think of to write, sorry for the long post
