Lord Foul's Bane Lib/E
This might have been one of the first books I was introduced to, when I was introduced to science-fiction and fantasy in junior high school. I read both the first and second Chronicles and remember mentally throw yellow and later red cards [rugby and soccer penalties] at the main character.
Had Goodreads been around at the time I would have rated all the books 1-star, which is why it's taken me decades to circle back to this. The weird thing is I still have both sets in my physical library collection and have been dragging them from home-to-home this entire time.
As an adult with more setbacks and dark days under my belt, I now understand the majority of the characters' motivations and reasons and therefore found this book much more enjoyable; no card displaying, let alone throwing them, at a character. I'm confident I'll read at least the next in the series, just not sure when.
