Black Magicians and Other Worlds

I finished reading Trudi Canavan's second Black Magician book The Novice last night.  She reallyis a great storyteller and I love the fact that you never know where she's going with the plot.  I can't wait to start the third book!  Hopefully the film studios will cotton on to how great these books are and start looking into making a big movie trilogy.  I've already thought of actors who would be great as the characters:  Gary Oldman as Akkarin (you will see me mention Mr Oldman a lot in the future - he is just SO awesome!), Liam Neeson as Rothen and Chloe Moretz or Hailee Steinfeld as Sonea methinks!  So many great actors to choose from!

I've also been hearing a lot about The Hunger Games and think I will look into reading these, but I also really need to read the Game of Thrones books.  The tv show has had amazing reviews but I'm one of those people who loves to read the book before seeing the movie!  I've a million other books stacked next to the bookshelf as no more will actually fit in! 

Another book I must re-read is The HobbitI cannot contain my excitment for (legendary) Peter Jackson's first instalment The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey coming out in December 2012.  The trailer gives me goosebumps when the dwarves are singing their deep, sonorous and melancholy lament.  Beautiful!
