So far, I have read most of two series (Forests of the Night and Hostile Takeover)
by S. Andrew Swann (try saying that three times fast), as well as God's Dice. The only thing the two
series and the single book have in common is that they were all written by a very tallented author. I really
enjoyed all of these books. They had good plots, lots of suspense, and nice action.

realize is that his tests are opening gateways between alternate worlds in which he leads quite different
lives--and one thing that all the different Richards have in common is their dreams of this magical place.
