Deltora Quest

a really surprisingly good fantasy book series for "younger readers", but I'm in college and I still think they're pretty amazing. it is kind of like lord of the rings, but instead of taking a long journey to destroy something, the main characters are on a quest to make something (a magic belt) that'll help defeat the evil shadow lord.

each book involves them traveling to a new place in Deltora with a somewhat cheesy name (lake of tears, dread mountain, etc) and coming across some horrific challenge (usually some kind of monstrous beast) and finding another gem to put in the belt.

it's a great series because it is easy to read, and it is full of neat riddles, puzzles, codes, and interesting situations and characters. apparently the author based the books on a bunch of rpg's that her kids liked, so it really has a final fantasy/zelda sort of feel to it (Lief=Link?).

I like to read them when I go home because I can usually finish two or three books in a weekend and still have like 15 more for later. she has seriously published like two sequel series to the original Deltora quest series.

the sequel ones are deltora shadowlands (meh, still entertaining) and dragons of deltora (just about as good as the original series)
SO, in a nutshell: slightly less addicting than harry potter, less wordy and complicated than LOTR, easy, fun, and has its own anime series
brother: "why are you reading those Deltora Quest books again? what are you, like 21?"

me: "hush."

Jean-Denis Deletraz 

A formula 1 driver from Switzerland, the last one until Sebastien Buemi. Drove for Pacific and Larousse, and he scored zero championship points in his career.

In 1994, he drove one race for Larousse. He replaced Erik Comas and drove for the Australian Grand Prix. He qualified 25th, but after 57 laps, his gearbox failed, and he retired, 10 laps down.

In 1995, he drove for Pacific, and in his first race, he retired with a cramp in his arm. In the second race, he actually finished, although he was 7 laps behind and finished 15th, which was last of the field.

He has been chosen as one of the worst Formula One drivers ever to compete, and being a pay driver, he was never given much chance as he had very little driving ability and could only race for small, financially strapped teams.
"Jean-Denis Deletraz... you heard of him?"
"Oh, that really bad Formula one driver from the 90's?"

"Yes Délétraz, really, here having no business in Formula One. And demonstrating it there: he's spending all of his modest effort, frankly, keeping the car on the road... This is, I'm afraid, one of the problems of the Grand Prix season - at the end of the year we do get one or two drivers being taken by people who've got more money than talent, and that's one example of it."
