The Dragonbone Chair

The Dragonbone Chair Mr Williams that's the guy, first name Tad Wrote an epic story about a little lad A layabout, a scruff, a hero in the making In a time when elven magic is awaking Though he labours in the scullery, he's born of noble line His father was a great man, we should take it as a sign So he grew up in the palace, and sometimes he would dare To sneak into the throne room and sit upon that chair Of dragon bone they say it's made A beast destroyed in the crusade Though myths and legends time may fade The dragonbone chair has always stayed My shelf is stocked with just these books Please don't give me funny looks I need no other than these four Now leave me, let me read some more For the What Is My Theme? contest Theme : Your favourite book or writer Choice : The Dragonbone Chair by Tad Williams (Sequence of four books)

I love fantasy & sci fi. I'd say Orson Scott Card & Asimov are 2 favorites! Light & Love
