Somebody else reading MTG books eh? :P

I have Timespiral - Planar Chaos - Future Sight at home for some summer reading, already read Timespiral once though and I enjoyed it a lot.

What have been your favorite of theirs so far?

Hmmm, well I really liked Lorwyn/Shadowmoor as a plane. I don't know if you play the game not, but the way they built that world was fantastic, in my opinion.

But I think my favorite would have to be the Odyssey cycle. Not only is the Mirari a really cool artifact, but Dementia Casters are quite possibly the coolest people ever! Even if they are a little...well, insane. =P
