Well, I thought I might give everyone who reads this an idea of what will be coming up. Most of the upcoming reviews will be taken place in the Forgotten Realm setting. The reason for this is simply because that's most of what I own.
This will not be a list of my upcoming video game rants! Honestly, I have no idea what video games I will rant about and which ones I won't. And to be perfectly honest, rants are random. With that said, however, I will be attempting to rant more often in the future.
Now, before I begin the list, I have to say a few things.
First off, THIS IS NOT IN ORDER! I will not be reading the following in the order I list. It's going to be as random as possible (aside from trilogies, which I do try to read all at once).
Secondly, new releases will be bumped up on the to do list. However, if I'm reading a book, I will finish that book first. I'm not going to drop what I'm reading just to jump into a new book. Also, if I'm working on a series, I will finish that series before going into the new book (exceptions: stand-alone novel series or I need a break from that series). Otherwise, I will drop my next planned review in favor of the new release.
Thirdly, when you see the same author grouped together it means that it's a trilogy or series. That may be confusing, but if John Smith writes "A" and then the next entry is John Smith's "B", it's safe to assume they are connected. However, keep in mind that if they are separated by another author, the novels are not connected!
Finally, I reserve the right to change and alter this list at any time. I do plan on picking up other books, and I will try to update as often as possible. Just so you know!

This next list is for series I plan on completing, but haven't as of yet. I'm not going to list the series, instead I'll post the book I have reviewed (which will be underlined) followed by what I have yet to review. Notice: Books that are not released will not be included until their release! What that means is, I can't review a novel if it's not out yet!
- Reiffen's Choice by S. C. Butler- Queen Ferris by S. C. Butler
- The Magicians' Daughter by S. C. Butler
Wow, that was a lot! I need to start whittling it down some! Finally, the last list I have are what I call the special cases. Why are they interesting? Well, because I'm going to do something different with this books. I'm not going to give away what books they are or what my idea is, so I'll just drop a few hints.- The first trilogy is based on a popular roleplaying video game and it's sequel and expansion by Bioware in the late 1990s. The first two books are written by Philip Athans, while the final book is written by Drew Karpyshyn.
- This series covers 22 years (from 1988 to present day 2010). It consists of nineteen books, has a hero who is a fan favorite, and has spawned a short-lived comic book appearance, which was published by Devil's Due. However since I've already reviewed the two most recent entries of the saga, I will not be re-reviewing them.
That's what I have planned at the moment!
*I would like to stress the fact that this list is not, by any means, set in stone. Like I've mentioned above, I may change what I have listed. But this is the basic outline of what I have planned for the future. I will try to get other books in on their release dates, I do have a few I want to pick up in the upcoming months. I will be taking off books that I do read, keeping the list as new and fresh as possible. Also, I do plan on adding more books to the to do list soon. So be on the look-out for new information! I'll be sure to post up a revision when it happens!*
**Also, recommendations are always welcome! I am open to suggestions! So please, by all means... Recommend!**
