Jan. 9th, 2008 02:56 pmOnce upon a time, I made a bargain with ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
dictator_duck. She was going to read The Fionavar Tapestry, and I was going to read the rest of the Young Wizard books, which I had dropped many years ago after reading A Wizard Abroad.
TL not only read Fionavar in a prompt and timely fashion, but also several other books I flailingly recommended to her after that. Meanwhile, I failed horribly to acquire the Young Wizards book I needed and brought an oathbreaker's shame down upon my head. However! When I visited The Strand over my Thanksgiving break, I finally acquired and read A Wizard's Dilemma, mitigating at least of my guilt, and when I went back this past weekend I found the next book and read it on the plane back. So! ( A Wizard Alone, with mild spoilers for the series )
Conclusion: I had some problems with the book, but I did enjoy it, and will be going on to read the next two. Partly to fulfill my promise to TL, and partly because I am still very fond of the characters, and in large part because MOAR CARMELA! And Filif, soon!
