Fantasy recommendations

[Farseer]

I have read Fiona McIntosh's Odalisque series, I found it very good, until the last book where instead of picking up speed and building tension failed to even maintain the drive of the previous books. I was so disappointed I haven't tried to read anything else by her, even though they have been recommended to me.

Thanks Rendezvous....sounds like I'd best go with a library borrowing first!

But if you are looking for good australian authors, I did enjoy Jennifer Fallon's Tide Lords cycle.

I was in a bookstore the other day but forgot Fiona's name by the time I got all the way home, and then discovered she was Australian when I Googled her book titles . The Book Depository is the perfect place to buy books but I sometimes still need to see the books on a shelf first!

Jennifer Fallon was another name I saw that interested me so that's a terrific tip, thanks.
