    Yes I've read several of his books and quite enjoyed them, my favourites are Moonheart, The Dreaming place, Greenmantle, the Ivory and the Horn, Memory and Dream and Riddle of the Wren. I like the way he takes a fairy tale or native legend and re-writes in an urban setting, there's always a dark edge in his books that I enjoy as well.

    :hmm: Time to re-read some books I think, thanks DF for reminding me of his books. :D

    DarkStrider, have you read any of his books under the pen name of Samuel M. Key? They're darker than his usual, but still with the same flavor. Though they tend towards the disturbing side, which is why I prefer his normal books.
