I’d read the series as a teenager, and enjoyed it back then.

Would I enjoy it if I read it for the first time now ~ 20 years later? Bags! I don’t know. There are erotic scenes sprinkled throughout the series so there’s no escaping that. I do fondly remember the magic system in that series, and Richard’s journey off the beaten path.

Everyone has different standards for literary works, and if you enjoyed the first book, then keep reading.
