An Introduction

[bookaddict88.livejournal.com]

*waves* Hey all! I just joined the community, so I thought I'd introduce myself. Both the Attolia books and this community were recommended to me by people over at athanarel. Actually, I'd heard about the books before and meant to read them, but the athanarel people's recommendation moved it higher on my reading list.  I just finished King of Attolia today (I just finished finals, so I actually have time to read!). I read The Thief last week, and Queen of Attolia yesterday, and REALLY enjoyed them all.

I guess that's all for now! Looking forward to meeting you all!

Welcome! It's nice to meet you - and to have people heading over from athanarel. I know there's quite a few Sherwood Smith fans here at Sounis too (including me). Glad you enjoyed the books!

Thank you!

Hey, welcome! It's always good to see new faces.

Look around and jump right in-- we may seem crazy but we're harmless. :-)

Thanks for the welcome! And craziness is fun. ;)

seem?

Welcome! Dude, you are a FAST READER.

[bookaddict88.livejournal.com]

Thanks!

Yeah, I'm a fast reader, but it still took me awhile. I just didn't have much to do the past couple of days (or rather, I decided not to do any of it). I love summer!

Hey, welcom, and please try not to run away xD
"just finished King of Attolia today (I just finished finals, so I actually have time to read!). I read The Thief last week, and Queen of Attolia yesterday," yup know exactly what you mean I read the books (first) with my dad and we finished them in a few days. I reread them and finished them even faster.
Hello again and I am stoked for new members xD

[bookaddict88.livejournal.com]

Thanks for the welcome! It takes a lot to scare me away. ;)

[idiosyncreant.livejournal.com]

Yay!
Welcome aboard.
I love the discussions that come up here. I'm sure you'll bring even more topics to the table.

Thanks for the welcome!

Like bookaddict88 I recently joined as well. I'd had no idea the community existed until Willow posted a heads up. I think I searched once, but didn't think of searching on Sounis. Doh!

Anyway I love the books so much, and the thought that there might be a fourth caused me to grin for about two days.

[bookaddict88.livejournal.com]

I found this when you posted a link to one of the posts here in athanarel. :) I didn't look at it right away (didn't want to run into any spoilers), but I bookmarked it, and came as soon as I read the books and found out they were as good as people had said.

So there is a fourth? Good! There were still some questions left unanswered after King of Attolia.

[estarria.livejournal.com]

Oh, no, no fourth yet. :( But hopefully she's going to write one, since there were definitely some loose ends there at the end of KoA. No official plans yet, though, as far as I know.

Yay Sherwood Smith! It's been a while since I read Crown Duel/Court Duel, but I loved them. I need to reread those.

[bookaddict88.livejournal.com]

Oh, I knew there was no fourth book out already. I was wondering if she had that book planned, though. Hopefully she does!

[estarria.livejournal.com]

Oh, good, I was thinking "hope she's not too disappointed..." :P

Megan let us know that there's going to be a fourth book around this time last year, when we asked. I think she added that she might work on something else first though - so the fourth book is probably still a while away. It should be coming eventually though.

[sartorias.livejournal.com]

Mmmm such a lovely thing to look forward to. So is a new story idea from her!

[rowana.livejournal.com]

Absolutely! New stories from Megan do seem to inspire a good deal of happiness. Speaking of which - any new members reading this might be interested to know about a new short story featuring Eddis as a child which will be appearing as an addition to the paperback edition of KoA, coming out this August.

Welcome! Watch out for the zucchinis, bears, cookies, alligators that haunt chatzy. Otherwise, slightly insane but perfectly harmless!

I love Sherwood Smith's books too. Yay for recommendations!

Hope you have fun! *offers cookies*
