Do! I love it. I kinda like Sabriel better than the other two, Sabriel's a lot cooler than Lirael (although she is older, and Lirael gets much more kickass later on). The Dog is my favourite character. And Mogget. Aah, Mogget.
...I'm not sure whether you're sneakily trying to get me to tell you more, using REVERSE PSYCHOLOGY, or, er, actually trying to tell me to stop talking. So, I WILL TALK MORE. Half-life 2 is set after a slight accident in the first game resulted in WAVES UPON WAVES of monsters besetting the lab facility where Gordon worked. He did the winning thing, and then a guy in a suit who talked funny said, "You're hired," and put him in stasis for twenty years. When he wakes up, he's been dropped into a train going to City 17 - and now it seems the whole world is under the control of the Combine (pronounded COM-bine, as in the harvester), a malevolent race from some other dimension who are gradually but effectively ending the human race.
It is glorious.
All I know about Goodkind is the icon, and the fact that his protagonist made fifty page speeches and built a statue that toppled a government with it's - uh - awesome. I tried reading Pillars of Creation once (pretty cover!) but I didn't like it. I forget why.
Oh. I'm not sure if I should be ressured or disappointed. Ah, well...the thing with Garrett is that, while he's very dedicted and professional, he's a very dedicated and professional thief, who was apparently busy burgling God when He was handing out morality. He's not all bad...but pretty close to it. It kinda depends on how you play him (you always have a choice between lethal and non-lethal, though non-lethal shows more skill). But everyone likes him anyway. It's The Voice, I tells ya.

I have not! I have heard of it, though!
