A rumor of dragons Book

Loved it! It's like Lord of the Rings. I've been looking for a sci-fi fantasy series that I could get into, and this was perfect. It's actually children's fiction for ages 8-13 which is some of the best fiction I've ever read because there's not alot of symbolism or romance in it, simply action and relationships between characters.
My favorite genre by far is poetry & classic literature, but sometimes it get so complicated. Last week I was at a bookstore in Erie called Books Galore. It is a wonderful place that sells new and used books, comics, games. What I would call a "geek store". I saw this series and I wanted to do some light reading, so I picked it up. I bought the next five in the series today.

It's about a group of companions on a journey in this medieval world of some other dimension. They have to fight off an evil force and they have their own rulers and creatures and what not. Not unique, not original, but I was really into it. The way the authors write the story just flows and you don't want to put it down. It's not boring at all.
