I've gone back and read the stress relief quest and I'm going to update it for being eligible for the find items. I'll label each specific part of it since it's such a complex quest. Give me about 5-10 minutes.

The rats just start taking steroids. They get dumber too ;) Don't let the size intimidate you.

(Congrats on level 8!)

I'm not too disappointed to leave rats in my past... just worked out that one more book to level up my staff and I can go on a killing spree which will include my first two dragons! Eek!

And PG Wodehouse has a few in the Blandings series as well as Jeeves (my sister prefers Blandings!)

[Cat]

James Patterson too - Alex Cross and the 1st 2nd 3rd series (can't remember the titles :( )

[Alex]

Thanks for the lists guys! I've been getting along alright with my series so far but it'll be good to refer back to this when I start to look for series books past 10 or so.

[Daphne]

Catherine wrote: "Lemony Snickett - Unfortunate Series of Events - 13 books

Added all of those to my list above in order of # of books. :)

[Rylie]

Wow, so many series recommendations! Reva gave me the super helpful link of the never ending series challenge, which gives every single series you can possibly think of, but just having a good list in easy links really does help.

[Cat]

Blandings Castle - Wodehouse - 12

Wilbur Smith - 13. but they are chunksters....

Queens of England - 11. Jean Plaidy has a few longish series of historical fiction

Cadfael - 20. and short.

[Daphne]

Updating my list as the recs come in! Keep 'em coming. :)

I'm going to sticky/link the list to my own challenge post. It's going to be lots of help. I hope it's going to help other adventurers too.

[Alex]

The website www.fictfact.com is very useful too. You can bookmark as many series as you want, and keep track of where you are in them.

I love FictFact!! I use it almost as much as GoodReads when it comes to my series. I don't even have all of them on there, but it's helpful!

[Karsyn]

Added a crapton more to my list. I love series! :D

[Daphne]

Karsyn wrote: "Added a crapton more to my list. I love series! :D"

I found a ton more too and added to the list. I will add yours to mine in # order. :)

[Rebecca]

Ok you have improved my Friday work day and now I'm going to look at all these series instead of digging through data.

Also I absolutely LOVE Fictfact and they email you when an author adds a new book to the series!

Yay!!

[Karsyn]

Daphne wrote: "I found a ton more too and added to the list. I will add yours to mine in # order. :)"

Also, I didn't put them on my list, but there's Star Trek (and Star Wars) as well. I know when I stopped reading my Star Trek it was in the 40s or 50s, at least 40. That was just for "The Next Generation". Voyager was around 20 the last I paid attention to them, which was years ago.

[Daphne]

That was fun, but I've ran out of steam. I will add more later, and add whatever other series anyone else can recommend!

I changed the list to be easier to see # of books in series easily. I hope this helps others as much as it's going to help me. :)

[Cathy M.]

Thanks for putting that together! I've been searching for longer series and you've helped so much with that!

[Cathy]

Here are some that I've enjoyed
The Cater Street Hangman
Night Pleasures
How to Marry a Millionaire Vampire
Dark Lover
A Quick Bite
The Warlord Wants Forever
Pleasure Unbound
Long Hard Ride
Heart Mate
Naked in Death
Guilty Pleasures
The Secret History of the Pink Carnation
Dead Witch Walking

[Mary]

how do you search for a joke within a book?


Congrats on yet another fallen Beast Reva but then you've been "my Hero" since the caravan opened :)

[Morgan]

Mary wrote: "how do you search for a joke within a book?)"

I just happen to find them when I'm reading sometimes. I picked something I figured would have jokes in it for this one though I Am America. It was pretty short, entertaining on audio, and had a joke featuring the word "mayonnaise". So pretty good for points.

"Why did the mayonnaise blush?"
"Because it saw the salad dressing."

[Mary]

Thanks Morgan!

A lot of the 87th Precinct Novels have jokes in them. By Ed McBain.

[Jo-Jo]

Hi all, I just noticed that anyone starting after January 1 this year gets a Welcome Basket. Can one of you tell me what Potion tokens are?

[Jo-Jo]

Also, the Stepanie Plum series by Janet Evanovich has a lot of books...not sure how many but I know its 21 or more

[Rylie]

Jo-Jo wrote: "Hi all, I just noticed that anyone starting after January 1 this year gets a Welcome Basket. Can one of you tell me what Potion tokens are?"

You can trade a potion token in for any potion you want from jack and Jill's carivan. They're really good for the more expensive potions like weapon enhancement, major heal, etc.

[Daphne]

Jo-Jo wrote: "Also, the Stepanie Plum series by Janet Evanovich has a lot of books...not sure how many but I know its 21 or more"

Added it to the list already. Looks like it has 23 so far. :)
