Yes although in later years they fell out quite a bit...I really like Eddings' series but I do have a major issue with Rowling (as you probably guessed!) The clever use of language in those books are interesting especially when rereading them...as with TABA and LOTR...what does annoy me is people who talk about LOTR as being individual books not just as three parts with further divisions and then further chapters within each division...but I have practically no issues with LOTR. It is one of my favourite books...if I ever get round to applying for Mastermind it will be one of my specialist subjects smile
