^ Ah that's ok.
I see you like The Art of War. Would you be interested in other military books?
Very much!
Hmm...for Harry Potter...the only books I can really think of that incorporates magic and witches is The Secret Circle series, but it's YA. In the sense that I don't think it quite breaches the lines for a mature audience like HP does. It is a tad bit darker than Harry Potter, more in the lines of the Deathly Hallows but...I'm not sure if it's everyone's cuppa tea.
If you liked Tolkien you might like Terry Pratchett. Very diverse worlds with various weird little characters (I love how he does the accents for them), very fantasy oriented.
@VB - You can try The Broken Well trilogy by Sam Bowring. I got it because the excerpt of the first book sounded insanely similar to Dante and Vergil's situation whatnot with the good twin bad twin thing. And Losara (the apparently 'evil' one) reminded me of Vergil. A LOT. The difference though is that the two male leads in the books are not brothers - they're one and the same split in half.
You can see if they have it for sale on amazon, because the author is an Aussie and his first books in the trilogy came out here in New Zealand only last year. Not very popular books, I still haven't seen the second book come in store (unless I missed it) so you might need to do some digging online for a copy. I don't think the third one in the trilogy is out yet. But VERY good, nonetheless, just make sure you have undisturbed time when you start to read it. It's unfortunately not one of those books that you can just pick up where you left off - you need to make it straight through the first five chapters to wrap your head around what's going on. Because there is a lot going on.
And...uuuuuggggghhhh. Am I
the only one who hasn't read Dracula yet? And I need to read it for research, but nuuuuuu, of course my dumb library won't have it! GAH! *headdesk*
