Well I've only read one series, but that doesn't have any dragon in it.
The use of magic is quite simialr, but it's ALOT rarer. Though I haven't read them for a long time. It's about excerciseing one's will and that's how it works. It does state that you can NEVER 'unmake' something.

no dragons in any i have read either.
he is really unique in many ways in his writing but that just makes the books even better!!
Lady Vinara- 12-04-2006
thats fine
I like the way Trudi made her world - similar to ours but with people in it who can handle magic...
I like dragons too, but more in the way they are in the Dragonriders of Pern-series.
lirael- 12-04-2006
which is BRILLIANT by the way!!
Lady Vinara- 12-04-2006
which one *confused*
lirael- 12-04-2006
dragon riders of pern!! well the ones by Anne are anyway!!
Lady Vinara- 12-04-2006
uh yeah
i loved those =o)
the mind-talk is very similar to what Trudi uses :wink:

Not really, in that they have to impress a fire lizard or dragon.
Lady Vinara- 12-04-2006
yes and no
there are some people - also non-dragonfolk - that can talk to all dragons
as for the no-part - they can't listen to other people talking to theier beasts - but drangons can ;o)
j_mercuryuk- 12-04-2006
Yes, but they were far and few.
Which is why it isn't quick like trudi's mind comminication.
Lady Vinara- 12-04-2006
again
yes and no
the queens can communicate to every dragon at once - but it's only the queens and those few humans...

David Eddings....he does should interesting. I just might go check him out.
LittleRaven- 12-04-2006
Maybe I will too.
Lady Vinara- 12-05-2006
I asked that friend of mine and I was right - he HAS got all the books Eddings ever wrote *laughs*
So we made a deal - he's going to read BMT and I'm going to read Eddings.
I'm looking forward to it but I think I will read Age of the Five first :wink:
j_mercuryuk- 12-05-2006
:lol: I didn't think I'd get so many people to read David Eddings.
