Just heard about B.Jacques on NPR :( Like a lot of you, these were an important stepping stone up from the little Magic Treehouse/Zach Files type books into longer and more complex stories for me.

Anyone else remember the one with cougars as the bad guys? And the one went slowly crazy as the basement of its castle filled up with water? Yeah that creeped me out big time.

Caleb:
I read his books as a kid.

I remember checking them out of the elementary school library.

They were really great.

Mossflower, yeah, that was the second one that I read, still one of my absolute favorites.

Tom:
Can we fix the thread title, Jacques was born in '39.

Ikrik:
Reading Mossflower right night.  I know that they're meant for kids and all but seriously, the man writes amazing fight-scenes.  I just got past the fight with the pike and The Gloomer.  It was awesome and epic. 

Also, his description of food made me painfully hungry and now I really want to try some of the items he described.
