  • Nora Roberts is a world-known bestselling author. She has sold over 280 million copies of her books, in 35 countries and some were made into movies for the television. She is, without a doubt, my favorite author and even my inspiration when I gave writing a try.

    Her books are divided in three sections: series (such as trilogies and saga), books that were published as 2-in-1 (and sometimes 3-in-1), and others.

    I am still working on the series' page, so bear with me!

    Read one of her books, and you'll be hooked!

  • Depuis Légende, son premier roman publié en 1984 et récompensé par le prix Tour Eiffel en France, David Gemmell n'a eu à son actif que des best-sellers. Reconnu comme le roi de l'heroic fantasy en Grande-Bretagne, cet ancien journaliste, grand gaillard de deux mètres, avait été videur dans les bars de Soho à Londres avant de prendre la plume. Sa gouaille naturelle lui avait toujours permis d'éviter de se servir de ses cent vingt kilos. Cette gouaille se retrouve dans ses ouvrages dont le rythme soutenu entraîne le lecteur dans des aventures épiques et hautes en couleur, où Gemmell savait mettre tout son coeur. Ce même coeur qui l'a abandonné en juillet 2006, à l'âge de cinquante-sept ans. Source - Biographie à l'intérieur de ses romans
