Excellent suggestions, Mr. Rothfuss. <br />Good Omens is hilarious, and one of my absolute favorites. It’s also the only book to ever get me on a teacher's bad side. I have a very loud laugh, which does not bode well for “silent reading time.” Terry Pratchett and Neil Gaiman are both wonderful authors. Excellent suggestions, Mr. Rothfuss.

If not that, then at least make a note to Konami and Kojima to explain to them the frustration of the Castlevania Fanbase when it comes to it's Story. Honestly I cannot stand another piece of shit story like Lament of Innocence. Honestly, the glory of the Vampire Killer that has scourged Dracula for Centuries shouldn't have been degraded by the essence of a LESSER VAMPIRE giving it its power to slay DRACULA or even DEATH, and a whole slew of other abominable creations.<br /><br />I hope you agree with me on some intellectual level that this just isn't something that should be in Castlevania.<br /><br />PS: you seem like a guy who likes dark, heroic, and extremely coherent stories, Castlevania *IS* suppose to have one.<br /><br /> Sincerely<br /> Michael J. G. Dear Patrick,

I am writing to you like this because of the intense and somewhat compulsive need to ask you for a favor.

Please make a Castlevania novel. If not that, then at least make a note to Konami and Kojima to explain to them the frustration of the Castlevania Fanbase when it comes to it’s Story. Honestly I cannot stand another piece of shit story like Lament of Innocence. Honestly, the glory of the Vampire Killer that has scourged Dracula for Centuries shouldn’t have been degraded by the essence of a LESSER VAMPIRE giving it its power to slay DRACULA or even DEATH, and a whole slew of other abominable creations.

I hope you agree with me on some intellectual level that this just isn’t something that should be in Castlevania.

PS: you seem like a guy who likes dark, heroic, and extremely coherent stories, Castlevania *IS* suppose to have one.

Sincerely
Michael J. G.

You're kidding, right? You do realize those guys have been writing fantasy since the '80s? Respect is due, my friend! </></>Also must second and third George R.R. Martin (my favorite series by far) and Naomi Novik. I'm in the middle of Empire of Ivory right now. Novik is brilliant! Must-read series. Nobody has mentioned David Eddings or Robin Hobb. The Farseer Trilogy and The Liveship Traders are very unique and completely brilliant! And if you haven't read The Belgariad and The Mallorean you have missed out on great books! </></>Don't mean to ignore you, Pat. I'm just catching up on your posts when I should be going to bed. Recommending books is one of my favorite pastimes!

I'm betting so. Also, have you ever thought about doing a mailbag type of deal (see Bill Simmons on ESPN.com) where you take email questions and answer them for like an hour or two...this would be greatly entertaining i'm sure, give that all your published interviews have been so much fun to read.

Being female and all, I tend to like books with strong female protagonists (probably why I like Buffy & such), so I recommend to the crowd out there "Grass" by Sheri Tepper and "Parable of the Sower" by Octavia Butler. I'd love recommendations from anyone along this line of interest if you've got them... Thanks, Pat, for adding this feature to your blog.
