Welcome to my introduction to Raymond E Feist's Riftwar Saga.

This is a pitch for this series to help you decide if you want to read it. It is a bit of a stereotypical fantasy, but it's a whole lot of fun.

I explain where all the 30 books fit it regards to each other. Which are the best books, and which you could possibly...skip?
