Not a big fan if the hero is twisted or truly dark at the beginning - but if he's flawed or tortured by some memories, then I'm in! :)Jemi Fraserhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02214408467456320167noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-556528429571644528.post-84096365503102223872012-04-20T19:12:26.129-04:002012-04-20T19:12:26.129-04:00working on finishing the wheel of time series. wil...working on finishing the wheel of time series. will rand ever finish his journey & save the world?!Tara Tylerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07587802105993889515noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-556528429571644528.post-56031580626556637212012-04-20T14:17:19.468-04:002012-04-20T14:17:19.468-04:00The fantasy trilogy by John Dickinson (can't r...The fantasy trilogy by John Dickinson (can't remember the name of it . . . the first book was <i>The Cup of the World</i>, at any rate) had characters who never seemed to find redemption, despite all they'd experienced.
